Pads Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 WVW may i be the first to applaud you on such an in- credible creation i think you should now make him a wife and a pet dog oh and a house........ you will never be bored again..........[;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-cat Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 The artistic talent, on display here, is truly amazing!! WVW - your potato heads are fantastic & as for the washing up bottle - you will always be guarenteed a position on Blue Peter, with that one!! [Www]Tresco - your models are .... are ....... are interesting? (she's a beautiful & lovely person - so we can't expect her to be perfect, at everything!!) [:D]Cassis, I think the heads you have based your wonderful creations on, are possibly called - Living Stones. My sister was going to buy Mark & I some for Chistmas - but I threatened her with bodily violence, if she did. Our surname's .................. Livingstone.

Cassis Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Hi AliHere's the latest - based on my friend and neighbour Richard, very like him except he does not wear a beret. If he sees this he may not be my friend much longer![IMG]http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i26/cassiscassis/PICT0002.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i26/cassiscassis/PICT0004.jpg[/IMG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vickybear Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 Cassis, your squashed heads are brilliant. Do you sell them? ( can't remember if you mentioned this earlier ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 No, I don't sell them but if you're ever passing by you can have one. Too bleeping heavy to post! If I put them in the vegetable garden maybe I could call them my Potes Agées? Sorry. Awful French joke. Off for aperos - see you!Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Head Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Like it Cassis, nice expressions. You'd sell those easily. If you can do those you can do an Indian face and headdress!Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I'll give it a go then. First I need to buy another pack of that DAS stuff, though. It'll look a bit weedy next to your totem pole ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Head Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 That's not a fair comment Cassis although I appreciate the compliment. I create for a living, whether it be chainsaw sculpture, furniture or timber framing....I get paid for it. If you have genuinely done that work freehand from your own head then your art is no more or less valid than mine. In fact I envy you. My projects have been born and thought about a long time before they are created, OK the totem was 'freehand' but it's not often I have the luxury to work freehand. Rarely does anybody say to me 'just do it'. I'd encourage anyone to explore their dreams, all of you out there have an idea of what you'd like to create, wheter it be sculpture, painting or working with potatoes and plastic bottles. ALL art is valid. Shaking off one's shackles is alot harder to do than worrying about peoples words and delighting over the rule book who gets deleted or warned tonight.Do something wild Cassis.....I give you the theme of 'The Scream', I'd love to see your interpretation of it in your cement medium. No rules, just be!Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Why don't you base all of your creations on the theme 'The Scream' and see what you come up with.Oh this could be an online art class. [:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 He's got holes in his gloves to hold his flagstick or whatever, but I've got to wait a day or two for him to set before he can stand alone, bend his arms and legs etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're no distance from Chartres and we mean to visit if ever we get a spare day (it looks like it'll be end of September) so I'll put that on the itinerary. Jude got me a couple of books on mosaic for Xmas so maybe it'll give me a nudge to make something - maybe not a whole houseful, though.If I didn't have my bits at the top and bottom my insides would fall out.
