Colour & Light

We have an assignment to find and analyse pictures that contain lots of colour and light. Straight away the images of some of my favourite artists began to appear in my mind.

Basquiat - Untitled (1981) - What I love about Basquiat I can't really explain. Only that his art is always full of colour. The following two Basquiat paintings are great examples of his use of colour.


Basquiat - Untitled (1984)


Monet - Water Lilies


Monet - Garden path at Giverny


Joan Miro - Prades, the Village

The Watershed

It's Wednesday. My first radio show is tonight and if anyone isn't doing anything between 9-10pm you should click your way to www.flyfm.co.uk and listen to some fantastic music!


Music: a funky, hip-hop song on a mix tape

Another Google SketchUp

Here is a little sketchup I made last night of my home in Milton Keynes... I haven't figured out how to make a roof yet, so it's not quite finished!

A Childhood Film

There were many films I saw as a child that stuck in my mind growing up, most of these were The Goonies, The Never Ending Story and Flight of the Navigator. But there was one film in particular that made such an impression on me, I have always wanted to find out what it was called in hope I could see it again, or hope to catch it on the off chance on TV.

This never sadly happened. But 16 years after first seeing it, I have found out what it's called and I've just bought the book!!

It is:
The Wolves of Willoughby Chase


Read a review of The Wolves Of Willoughby Chase from Channel 4 Film

Finally I can let part of my mind rest...
