Melanie Tomlinson Gleaming Automata and Jewelry

Above: Mrs Topescu and the Wolf
Above: Moth
Above: Chameleon
Below: Butterflies, moths, and flowers

Above: Crow I was in the DCA, Dundee today and tried to buy a piece by Melanie Tomlinson, instead thankfully I took her name, as now I know so much more and I can order the peice I want. Melanie makes these stunningly beautiful works from hand printed tin and is greatly influenced by Romanian folklore. Before now I thought that she made only jewelry but she also makes amazing automata, you can see more of her work and buy directly from her at her webpage.

Bee Beards and Kevin Titzer

I have been thinking about beards and then bee beards, and have found Kevin Titzer's sculptures which share alot of visual language with my own work.
I keep thinking they are ceramic, but they are mixed media made of drift wood, wood, tin ect and painted.

Lucy Carson



Having a tin day today, these domestic scenes are created by the artist Lucy Carson, using basic equipment, I love their humour and observation. I have been watching a video about lots of artists and she is one of my favourites, I would love to have a go at recycling some tins in this way, but it could be the start of a new bad habit, street combing.
