A Digger called Larry

These diggers and dumpers are all made with pearlescent inks on MDF blocks. I plan to do quite a few of these and place them into sets of vehicles. Also decided to give each vehicle a name.

Diggers and Dumper Trucks

Here is the beginning of a heavy machinery series. All the diggers and dumper trucks were spotted locally. The images are painted as usual on MDF using inks.

Balloon Inflating in Victoria Park

Balloon Inflating in Victoria Park is a series of five would block paintings. Each painting measures 12 by 12cms. The wood blocks use inks painted onto MDF with a layer of white emulsion in between. This balloon happened to have a lady posing in underwear printed on the side, I didn't realise this until semi inflated.
