I finished something else

The latest swap on cps was to make three pins inspired by Paisley.  This one was the first one I made.

These were number two and three. All three are now on their way to their new owners and I am on my way to finish something else :)

Woven pendants

The challenge was to make woven pendants approx 2 inches high for a swap on Cloth Paper Studio   I started with 1mm copper wire, wrapped around a domino. 

These will be winging their way across the Atlantic tomorrow ready to be swapped out.

Yorkshire Sculpture Park

This is the beautiful Yorkshire Countryside, home to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park and close to where I grew up and where Claire lives now. 

The path to the entrance is made of steel with the names of those who contributed to the building of the exhbition space, sorry about my feet getting into the picture :)

This is the first sight of the David Nash exhibition, carved and burnt wooden columns. 

The exhibtion is spread over two indoor galleries with more outside. These are carved and burnt.

These are bronze castings of carved sculptures, rusty and very interesting, click to zoom in for a closer view.

This was my favorite.

There are many sculptures to see, spaced over many acres, but we only looked at the David Nash as we had children with us, but I did see a Henry Moore in the distance
