Parcel goes on an adventure....

Parcel was a bit miffed....three days on a shelf, waiting for Karen to get to the end of the daily tick list.

"Please be patient” Karen said to Parcel “I have to go and get the car fixed at lunch time, perhaps you would like to join me?”

Parcel was delighted in going for a trip out!

Off to Dewsbury they went, after dropping the car off at Kwik Fit they strolled through Dewsbury town centre, nipping into a couple of fashion boutiques for a glimpse of anything nice to purchase for the pending vacation to Whiby.

They came to rest and take refreshment at Sainsburys Café. A suitable window of opportunity to unwrap Parcel, thought Karen.

“What in such a public area?!” questioned Parcel alarmingly. Karen reassured Parcel that it would be “alright” and “the people here are too busy with their own lives to notice us”.

Sitting at the café window looking out watching the weather change continually, Karen took her time to relax.

By coincident Andrew Warburton walked passed the Café window. He could not believe Parcel had not been unwrapped yet!!!

Karen made a choice there and then to allow Andrew to participate in the unwrapping of Parcel, as she had unwittingly forgot to bring her camera and by good fortune Andrew possessed his fancy camera phone.

The moment had finally arrived! Parcel was slowly revealed. Karen savoured every moment. She was delighted and in awe at the beauty revealed.

Helaina has created a most delightful, evocative piece of Art.

Karen is excited and intrigued about the adventure she is about to undertake…..

Received, but not revealed!

Right then!

I have received the parcel from Helaina - We enjoyed a nice cup of tea and a bun during the hand over.

Strange to read your comments that you are nervous at my reaction upon opening it!

I will be suitable surprised when it happens…..Yes everyone the parcel is on the shelf in my living room waiting patiently to be un wrapped.

This special moment will happen when my present workload lessens and I can give the occasion my full, undivided attention – because that’s what it deserves!

Wait to hear more.

Late night No.1

Well as I suspected yesterday that it was going to be a late night – it was! … Put it this way, the birds were singing when I decided it was time for bed!

But it was an extremely productive night. I always find the first few hours the most important when I’m inspired; I like to get down as many ideas as possible.

The problem now is that I have got so many ideas, and within different disciplines – Where do I go from here?

…Can I somehow fuse these ideas together and forge them into a coherent whole?

…So many possibilities and yet so little time!

Here’s a little taste of one of the avenues I was exploring

Stay tuned for more….

And on it goes again...

That’s it. The deed is done.

I have fully and completely enjoyed every second of this process,
from concept to finished article.
I think I will be revisiting this technique again fairly soon,
such was my enjoyment.
I have many more ideas to explore with the materials that I have used.

Now over to Damian Clark for the next round of creative play.
Have a huge amount of fun and good luck mate.

Creative Wounds

Yes Robin, I have touched on this process before but not for many years now.
I have got many cuts and a few burn blisters all over my hands. All in the name of creativity.

Teaser Sketches

I have been playing around with a few ideas of how best to proceed and have settled on the medium that I want to use. Once I had decided on the materials I set to sketching out a few images. Here are some teaser shots from my sketches. What on earth could it be?

Keep watching!

PTP moves on. Feeling creative.

Just received the parcel from Andrew.

Looking forward to getting my teeth into this. Many ideas have sprung to mind in response to the artwork that Andrew has produced. I am going to make a pot of coffee and mull this over for a while. Watch this space!

By the way, nice work Mr Warburton!

How difficult was that?

Well, I have finally finished my piece of "Art". It was a lot more difficult than I thought it would be but I have thoroughly enjoyed the process. I was able to bring together lots of ideas and techniques that I have wanted to do for ages. What you may think of the final outcome I am not sure but I have made something that I am pleased with.

The baton has now been passed to Michael Barrett. Good Luck.
