Just for fun!

This is one of my husband's paintings, entitled 'Cheap Street'.

I decided to alter it a bit ....



March 2007 - Works of Art

The original:The brief:
What I'd like you to do is take the mannequin image and make it look like a painting. Your choice of style, of course. And perhaps the girl could do with a new leg, too, to replace the one that seems to have come adrift...


The finished work:

March 2007 - Make me a statue!

The original:
The brief:
There's a plinth in London's Trafalgar Square that was empty for 164 years. No-one could decide what to put on it. Then it was announced that it would hold a series of works by contemporary artists: at present, it features an amazing statue by Marc Quinn. That's being taken down this year. Any suggestions for a replacement work of art? It's a tricky perspective!


The finished work:




March 2007 - Finish the Job

The brief:
