Sweat and Tears – part 8
Bykaterattray July 19, 2011

I have completed the tears on the other side. This is the side with the face. I found a photo of Jodie Williams on the web and I drew it and distorted it so that it would look like her reflection in the tear. Jodie Williams is a British 17 year old sprinter who will…

Sweat and Tears – part 2

The next stage of the Olympic sculpture was to organise and order tiles. I want the sweat and the tears to look as if they are on skin, so the tiles I choose are very like water glass tiles – they have a coloured base with thick clear glass on the top, and represent the…

Soda Trees and Violins
Bykaterattray August 24, 2011

We all know how refreshing it is to look at kids art. Unrefined, naive, thoughtful and completely original! Sometimes artists try hard to bring that naivety back. Some succeed but others fail, perhaps they have learned too much about techniques and the world in general. Maybe the best way is not to learn the techniques and not…
