Some of these beaded animals, bought on the street in towns around South Africa, bring my garden to life. Giving life is their thing- making and selling them provides a livelihood for many entrepreneurial and creative South Africans, who would otherwise be destitute. Others make animals with old plastic bags and odds and ends that would otherwise clog our drains and suffocate wildlife.
"The first person to make a recycled plastic bag animal is known as Isaac. He was born in the Eastern Cape. Read more

Come with me to a Tate modern life drawing class

2006-06-27T09:23:00.000Z

Join me at the Tate modern in a life drawing class. This event sounds like an incredible opportunity to attend a surrealism workshop with attending tutors. I am going on the 10 July, tickets cost £15 and the session is from 6.30pm - 9pm. Its running till the 17 July.

I read an article in the FT magazine and they described the session as such. ' The workshop is held in the gallery's "Poetry and Dream" rooms. With three separate spaces offering three contrasting poses, and you are free to move between them. One model holds a Dali lobster telephone to his ear. Price and Noble-Partridge have planned the classes masterfully, so that the poses are varied, teaching is unintrusive - but there if you want it - and all artistic standards are welcome.
It sure has me excited!!! It would be great to meet my fellow IF illustrators there, hope you can make it 10 July.
