the year ahead
right then,
just a quickie to fill you in on my plans of new work for 2007.
first off, i've just bought myself a nice shiny circular saw to get cracking on some new installations i have up my sleeve, these (hopefully) will incorporate printing, painting, perspex and some use of lighting... oh yeah and wood which is the main part of the idea, nice wood at that.
i should be digging up the old american dreamer woodblock out and actually getting a quality run of the prints done on a super new printing press at OK Studios. some full colour and some black versions.
more woodblocks will be surfacing over the course of 2007, as i would like to experiment with multi coloured prints with a number of woodcuts to make up a single piece, thenly problem with woodcuts is the time to cut them out... or should i say patience, haha...
kuroworld will actually happen sometime this year, it's been nearly 3 in the making and after the shitty year i had last year and the lack of funds i never got chance to get it off the ground as i had planned. got a bit of cash i'm putting aside for materials so after a few more months of saving i might actually get round to moulding and casting some of the little blighters, a bit more work needs to go into the production run numbers and how far i want to take them... i wanted to make a buttload of them but now i'm thinking of only turning out a small number... see how the demand goes when i get some in my hands... they will happen, i'll be dammed if they take another year!
tshirts, prints and other things as well... got some furniture i want to make for my house n'all... so that should keep me going into 2010.... haha as well as the day job... the sooner the government introduces the 3 day weekend the better.
take it easy.
