Here is a Caricature that I did as a demonstration to some of the youngsters who are attending the art project at Bellamy.

The image was from a pencil drawn doodle that I did a couple of days earlier. The image that is on the blog is a free hand throw up on the wall using sprays.

Another Wheat Paste











Here's another one that is now accompanying the first one (so she doesn't get lonely)

Wheat Paste Graff











Hello to everybody X

Firstly can I just say a big thankyou for all your feedback to may other posts. I have tried to go to all your posts individually but due to me being very busy and not having enough time to say thankyou to all of you I have decided to start this post by saying a BIG THANKYOU!!!! :-)

Anyway I must appologise as there is only one image at present due to the weather being very cold and my fingers had gone a funny colour of blue after just producing one image. As I manage to put more images up I will post them on here.
The image (if people struggle to see) is of a young woman (no one in particular, just an image I have used). I have drawn the image up in large format (about 1m x 1m) and then painted her black and white using external wood and metal paint and "several" HB pencils.

I then (and this bit I really enjoyed, and it reminded me of Wednesday afternoons at my late Grans when I was a child). I used simmering water and flour, about 6 cups of water to one cup of plain flour and mixed it to make the glue (wheat Paste) and then literally pasted the image to the brick work at Bellamy.

I will admit that some of the younger children helped as this was part of their project but due to the weather they lasted all of 2 minutes which is fare doos!

ENJOY and have a go (although remember that alot of people wont appreciate having stuff pasted on their wall randomly and you will get fined, community service is not fun!) I say though that all public buildings should come with a wheat paste, lets paste the world ;-)
