Alice Newman III


I love the old buildings in Dundee there are some very sad, crumbling beauties which I hope in Dundee's regeneration will be revisited and given some loving care. So I was happy to see that Alice Newman had honoured some of them in her sketchbooks. Below is one of my favourites squashed between road, rail and Tesco's. 

Alice Newman I



Alice Newman has just graduated from DJCAD in illustration and has focused a lot of her work on the city of Dundee, this is her lovely colourful print of the city.

"I aim to show the charm found in ordinary places, such as in pubs, streets and coffee shops. Dundee has been a great inspiration to me over the last year. Drawing on location around the city has influenced and inspired my drawing, which has enabled me to build a portfolio that highlights Dundee’s charms and quirks"

Joanna Jakutowska



A last few posts from Dundee Degree Show which finishes tomorrow. 
Joanna Jakutowska's animation was fantastic as were her stunning life drawings. Hopefully soon I will be able to share her animation with you as well.

Daniel Bruton



I still have some things to hare from DJCAD the Dundee degree show. This is the work of Daniel Bruton who made this wild looking costume, that reminded me of the Burry man, except that this is made from cardboard scales. Daniel was then filmed propelling himself at a ramp in a decorated shopping trolley (the ramp was at the wrong angle and you do not get to see what I can only think would be a painful result).

Mary-Beth Quigley





Mary-Beth Quigley's degree show at DJCAD Dundee, features a life size giraffe called Geoff, and a menagerie of other creatures peering at you from unexpected places. 
Mary-Beth's work has evolved from a love of costume,installation and film. Scraps of fabric giving shape to childhood memories and evoking a time of joy and innocence.

Flo Gordon




Flo Gordon has created a bright joyful plasticine dominated degree show at Duncan of Jordanstone College  of art and design.
I always love plasticine in art it is such a surreal art material and always seems playful and fun. You can see various other posts about plasticine here.
