Final Piece, First Hand-in of My Second Year.

Well It's been a crazy few weeks, with deadlines and the New Year.
My project for my Second year in my Applied Arts degree has went down quite well
over-coming a lot of design flaws and I have loved every minute of experimenting with many techniques and playing in the workshops.
This is my final piece; I etched the handle and oxidized it and the main piece is layered copper, rose tinted acrylic and oxidized copper, it's riveted to the handle and slips into it for a more portable object.
You can interact with the piece and move each element, I wanted the collector of this object to feel an escape from their day and to feel nostalgic of a place and time.

By the way I upload a lot of my work to

I find Flickr a brilliant way to store photo's and creative work and it's a great community.

Project update; point of field.

Hey guys so the last 2 weeks I've been in the Jewellery workshop whipping up some samples and breaking lots of saw blades.
I'm really excited what I've been making and I've been really enjoying my theme and using plastics.

I've also being making some ceramic decal tiles and playing around with plaster bats, painting colored slip on them then covering them in normal porcelain slip to create a colorful tile.
