| This guy's got a certain moxy, he'll buy and sell anything, if the price is right. |
 |
| He'll even use his very own body to advertise, he has plenty of space for logos and a willingness to sell out. |
 |
| Bill is, in his own words, "corporate ready". |
 |
| Like many at the moment Bill finds it hard trading in the current economic climate, " Like, look at all of this shit, nobody wants this now, they just don't have the money to waste anymore. I'm stuck with this lot now." |
 |
| Wirecasing found in most buildings and offices. There's a look of longing in those eyes, longing to be elsewhere I would imagine, away from all the grey. |
 |
| It's not exactly the botanical gardens but it could be just right for my wirecase flowers. |
 |
| These are my illustrated flowers from a sketch in one of my notebooks. |
 |
| The flower in the pot here really reminds me of those dancing flowers with sunglasses from the 90's. This flower, however, looks like it has absolutely no intention of dancing. |
 |
| Here's my idea for durable flowers in the urban environment. They take on the colours from their surroundings and always have a dead stare. Below this are some colour variations. I was interested in seeing this picture in various colour palettes, but it's the one in black and white at the bottom that I like the most. |
 |
| It's a pillar of support in the building and it's blushing. |
 |
| I enjoyed the simplicity of this character and the possibilities with it being blank. I see it as a way of holding a message or a sign in one of the images, and I plan on doing more with this fella. |
 |
| A colour for every mood. |
 I was going back through my photos from doing my research and I stumbled upon this one here of an abandoned bar. I'm starting to see a theme running here through the last few posts which is becoming interesting to me. As is the trend at the moment in this country, everything is being shut down and nothing is opening in its place. Everyone is being let go from their positions and there is nowhere for many to go other than the dole. It's hard here at the moment for a lot of folk and frustrating for those who wish to work. Best of luck to everyone in this position. |
| This here is the domesticated cardboard box. A one stop shop of urban storage. These ubiquitous little creatures are all around us, and I just happen to be in the company of some at home. What happens to them when we just throw them out into the wild, back where they came from? What happens when they are abandoned? |
 |
| Could you abandon this? |
 |
| Naturally, when you leave them to the mercy of the wild it becomes a survival of the fittest. Those cute boxes don't stand a chance. |
 |
| Some straight forward illustrating and extruding. I like these boxes. |
 |
| Here they are, captured in the wild, box chasing box. |
 |
| This one is far more suited to the wild. |
