Sam3's Ugly Ducklings



"Many cities repopulate their urban rivers with ducks and swans to somehow clean their visible sewage waters. This installation hopes to clean the reality of the ducks which inhabit these sewage waters by adapting rubbish into their forms
During a whole week plastic bottles will be floated over River Segura. The bottles will be bird shaped, aquatic species, and will form groups and families. All materials used in this installation will be recycled materials and will try not to disturb the inhabitants as much as possible.
If the animal cannot adapt to its environment, the environment must adapt to the animal."

Andy Potts



These illustration have a very distinct style, Andy Potts keeps to the same kind of style so his type of illustration is more reconised. I feel that in my own work i should take this into consideration, so my body of illustration has a distict style to represent me.

Blue road




Henk Hofstra's blue road in Drachten (Holland) stretches 1000 meters long. Great piece of street art used on a massive scale to give full impact. Like how the car looks like its drowning, really quirkey.

Dan Witz






This artist is one of my favourite street artist, as he isnt your normal kind of street artist. He has a more clasical aproach by using oil paints to create his artwork. This gives a more detailed image and gives the street art more subtletey. The ideas and concepts fit in well into the enviroments that he is painting in to.

Handy signs


A clever balance of traditional graphic styles and methods of application with a narrative sensitivity. Realey pop art style of illustration, the colours are bright and bold.
