20's style dress

I made this for the party after my wedding. 

It is fairly heavily beaded 20's style, made from 2 different layers of net, so actually is pretty strong.

It was a pleasure to play around with 1920's patterns - I tried some slips in 20's shapes too, which I will try and post up in the future.

But anyway, you get the gist. If you are interested in anything like this, ask me, I am very open to commissions.

Feather Head Piece

Do you know anyone who might be interested in buying one of these? 

It is 40's style and could be made in a range of colours, this is just the nicest one.
If you do, let me know, I might try and make more to fund the studies I begin in September...

What I have been doing

I made this a couple of days ago for my friend's baby, I am very pleased with it.

Whilst it needs a bit of streamlining, but I am hoping to spend a bit of time on this and some other animals done in the same style.

I am very proud of his handsome whiskers.

Fox is washable.

Helicopter

This is the short film I made for an art-swap with my friend James Parkin (find his work here).
I have had this in mind for a long time, the idea was conceived whilst reading 'Don't sleep there are snakes' (A great book). As I mentioned in the last post, I have been focussing on making offensively bright and clashing quilts recently, so have been slow with making any art, but I am really pleased with the quilts and with this video.

You can see images of the quilts here (at www.flosscobbquilts.blogspot.com). Feel free to subscribe and tell any rich friends about them.

Beartown artwork

I made a sleeve for a band under the Beartown Records label. You can own this AND the great tape by SLUMP for only £3 from www.beartownrecords.com

I have been making quilts (initially for babies, now for double beds too) more than art in my spare time, which I will paste a link to very soon.
I have also made a short film (under 20 seconds) for an art swap with a friend, once I have made him his copy I will post it up here.
Currently working on a zine with some friends, to be completed (and a link to it put up) by August.

Follow up film / shots - The Periscope (Aleph)

I let myself get into the frustrating situation of going to document the Periscope with a camera with low battery. Oh dear. Hence this brief film:

However, I am pleased with how this shooting style this worked out, so have decided to see it as the start of a new short film work rather than a failure to document the last piece. So I'll get to work and post the next development from it.

Here are some new photos of views through the Periscope, I am also pleased with the way some of these turned out.
