Watercolour Collage

After seeing the artworks of Ann Davidson at the RGI gallery a little while ago, I wanted to try my hand at this type of collage. Her collages are enormous and awesome. Mine is a little smaller, but not bad for a start I guess!

Chicken Road Safety

These posters were produced last year for a fictitious road safety campaign for chickens. They were produced from layered coloured card. I wanted the stylised look so went for just 3 colours and acute angles. I think they work well!

All 3 are likely to be displayed at the Calderglen exhibition.

The Teacake

I made a coffee and walnut cake for a friend disguised as a Tunnock's Teacake! The cake was covered in brown coloured fondant (not chocolate) and the wrapper was created with kitchen foil and red marker pen from a scaled up wrapper design.
