Callums Tattoo
Sorry for the hiatus folks, I know it looks like I have dropped off the face of the planet for the last few months but I'm back now and hopefully I will be posting once a week again, if not once a month. My Friend Callum wanted me to design a tattoo for him and this is what I came up with. Not bad for my first tattoo drawing, if I do say so myself.

What's On at the Cooper Gallery
Summer Sale!
From Saturday the 20th of July to Saturday the 3rd of August the Cooper Art Gallery is having a summer sale, where everything is under a £100!
The Summer Sale has some really good stuff in it, then again it also has some really bad over priced stuff that I could do at the age of seven. So, if you are interested in art get your butt down there before all the good stuff is gone. There are a range of works from paintings to pottery to jewellery.
Stories from Café De Galata
Café De Galata is one of the Cooper Gallery's current exhibitions. It is an installation piece inspired by the painting 'Café De Galata' by Charles Theodore Frere. It is meant to replicate to some extent a bustling Turkish café in Constantinople, however as you can see it is rather sparse. Conceptually it is very good and I think guests would have really enjoyed it if it had a lot more things in. When I imagine a Turkish café, I expect it to be full of cushions of different shapes and sizes, never two being the same. I expect to smell herbs and spices, hear running water from a fountain and see lots of drapes and curtains. However there is music records of a Turkish market place which I think gives the work an extra dimension which it really benefits from.The cafes main function is a child's story telling area, where on Saturdays there are workshops and story telling sessions at 10am, 11:30am and 2pm. Which I hear is quite good, so it you want to get rid of your kids for an hour or two there's the place to go.
But this is just personal taste, don't let it stop you from visiting. The exhibition runs till the 31st August. that's plenty of time left to take a peek, visit the summer sales and have a look at the other exhibition, Streets of Barnsley or is it Barnsley Streets. I can't remember.

Sleeping Beauty
Hi guys. Sorry I haven't posted anything for a while I have been busy with degree show and stuff. Here is a photo-shoot I did with Georgina, it must have been one of the easiest shoots I have done with her, because all she had to do was sleep. I think she might have actually fallen asleep at one point too.
