The Genesis Project.
'The genesis Gate'This idea maybe of interest to school PTA'S, a school gate that is education and self-funding. For example the illustration above loosely represents a rainforest. Pupils could use it as a blank canvas, they could decide which animal sculptures to include, it maybe one on the endangered list? Perhaps they could organise a competition and decide. The gate could generate income by selling discreet advertising space displayed on the metalwork to local businesses. Perhaps they could be persuaded to sponsor or adopt a particular creature. From time to time the sculptures could be removed and sold off to raise money for other projects or charities. The school could run a different ecology project and choose different animal sculptures. Fresh advertising space could be taken up or renewed. The sculptures could be sold to the general public or to the businesses as part of a tax efficient advertising package or on to other schools who could start their own 'Genesis Gate'.
Everybody wins, the school gets a stunning stainless steel gate that can educate, make money and be fun! Businesses help to promote themselves to the local community in a novel tax deductible way. The gate helps to secure and support local artists. 'The Genesis Gate' every community should have one!

July 10th, 2011. 25 Foot Ceramic Murals installed at a Waitrose Store.
July 10th.2011.
The two 25 foot ceramic murals installed at the Waitrose store on Well rd just as you arrive at East Cowes at the Red funnel ferry terminal on the Isle of Wight. An unusual creative departure for me .I enjoyed researching them and creating them for kimberley developments PLC ,so if anyone wants a large ceramic installation of any size to go anywhere (walls ,floors ceilings ,inside or out) give me a call !
Oh,and the pilot of the supermarine SB6 Racer is me.Cheers.
