This owl is inspired by The Saltley Stories archive, produced by Norton Hall in Saltley and from artist Grayson Perry and his pottery work. The design features phrases in Urdu, Romanian, Hindi and English alongside mehndi patterns and imagery from sacred geometry. The design is intended to reflect both the local community and its connection to the environment.

Auction Price: £3200
The Big Hoot captured the imagination of everyone in Birmingham and beyond, with hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets with their Big Hoot Trail maps to explore the colourful invasion of individually designed owls. Taking in the city’s 10 districts, tourists and residents alike enjoyed their owl adventure, discovering and celebrating the extraordinary creativity produced by many of Birmingham’s artistic community and over 25,000 young people.
The Big Hoot owls went under the hammer on 15 October 2015 at The Big Hoot auction sponsored by Vodafone and we are thrilled to have smashed our target by raising the incredible sum of £508,035!
The money raised from the auction will support Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity’s £3.65m Star Appeal. This appeal will enable us to create a first of its kind, a Rare Diseases Centre in the UK specifically for children. It will provide co-ordinated care, treatment, support and most importantly hope to children and families living with a rare or undiagnosed condition.
In addition the auction raised £15,000 for G’owl’d by Temper with proceeds going to Edward’s Trust, and £7,800 for Fleet and Free with proceeds going to Birchfield Harriers.
So thank you - we simply couldn’t have done it without you.
Artists have played a major role in The Big Hoot, creating almost 100 owl sculptures. We would like to thank all the artists for their incredible creativity and hard work.
Professional artists from Birmingham, the wider Midlands region and further afield have created extraordinary giant owls that are all unique in style and character and represent the city’s creativity, history and heritage, music, fashion, architecture and attractions.
Birmingham is home to a wealth of artistic and creative individuals and communities and many award-winning and nationally and internationally acclaimed artists. We are delighted with the response from Birmingham’s creative community and are thrilled to work in collaboration with them to transform the streets, squares and parks of the city.
For five months artists have been creating owls in their studios, at home and in The Big Hoot Artists’ Studio at the Custard Factory in Digbeth. Their inspiring and innovative designs have been realised in genres including graffiti, illustration, fine art, graphics, typography, mosaic and new media. They have worked with both community groups and with corporates to realise ideas and create their stunning designs.
The Big Hoot not only provides a high quality and ambitious free public event for families but also supports the creativity of artists and celebrates talent and diversity. The Big Hoot has provided an inspiring relationship between the city and the arts.
The artists have also reached out to communities enabling more people to participate in the arts, to experience working with professional artists and to be inspiring and inspired. From the north to the south of the city residents groups, youth groups and older peoples’ groups have been collaborating with artists to generate ideas, design and create owls for The Big Hoot.
Creativity is everywhere but the opportunity to participate is not. A range of activities have been programmed within Birmingham’s diverse communities and people from the age of 3 – 97 and from wards within the city boundaries have contributed to The Big Hoot and helped make the event extraordinary. Our projects have seen artists working with hundreds of residents and community members including children in looked after care, older peoples’ clubs, young people and residents organisations to design and decorate the owls displayed as part of the 10 week public event.

I’m quite pleased to announce the pending release of PANACEA, a photo book I’ve been working on with Tim Gatto of BIT BY ZEUS. It’s been a labor of love, and I can’t wait to share it with you all.
The book features the work of 37 different photographers (including myself) and will be officially released at a show featuring the photographers from the book: February 1st, 2013 at MUA Oakland. PANACEA is printed color offset, 8.5″ x 11″ and will be limited to 100 copies.
We just picked up the final printed books yesterday, and will be releasing first look photos shortly, so stay tuned.

So I have decided to start a new personal project. Halo is probably one of my most favorite game series so it makes perfect sense to do this. Hopefully it will be nice on my portfolio too, as something I did as a personal project just for kicks.
This exercise for me is to improve the overall look and feel of the cinematics. I am taking heavy inspiration from Blur Studios and their work on Halo 2. I know, I only have the original graphics to work with. I can tell you one thing though, it's really fun doing it because the series is so fantastic. I don't have 3D skills anyway (I only do VFX and composite work right now), but I also want to keep the original integrity behind what made those games special - albeit with many enhancements in cinematic quality.
This is all WIP and really just for fun so I can exercise my VFX and compositing skills.

Prepping for 1st Day Back to School
Our school district allowed parents to choose on-campus or full remote instruction for the 2020-2021 school year. In August, we chose full remote for the first nine weeks of instruction for Dominic who is now a junior at MECHS as well as for Anna who is attending Life Bridges. Anna was bored silly being at home. Dominic loved it. We carefully watched the campus dashboards and both campuses had no positive cases of COVID-19. So in October, we decided to send Anna back to Life Bridges and keep Dominic remote. Life Bridges is housed in a small building with maybe 40 kids total. Everyone is required to wear masks and social distance. There was one COVID scare and Anna stayed home the week before and week of Thanksgiving. No one got sick. She got a sore throat right before Christmas so we kept her home that week too but again, no one came down with COVID. I was VERY impressed with how well the staff did keeping our kids safe. Dominic's grades slipped a bit; in talking with his educational team and his psychiatrist, we felt it best that he go back in person in January. He was not thrilled with this news but graciously accepted his fate. MECHS has also done an excellent job keeping the kids safe, it's also a smaller high school with about 225 students total. I decided to drive them to school and pick them up every day to avoid germs on the bus. Hopefully we can keep COVID out of our home.
Monday night I started prepping stuff for their first day back, getting their backpacks, lunch boxes, and masks/lanyards/filters/face shield ready. Who would've guessed a year ago that this would be our new normal? By the way, we love these SafeMate washable cloth masks. They come in different sizes and I cut the headstrap off the back of them. They have disposable carbon filters that go inside them. I also got lanyards so the kids can pull their masks down to eat and not have to place them on a table. The filters get tossed and the mask never re-used until laundered. I also got mask brackets that can go over the mouth to keep the mask from making you feel like you're suffocating. The masks stay nice and snug but you can breathe more easily.
Dianne is the most recent addition to my personal project, the "Black Light" series, where all painting is done by the subject and then they are photographed using 6 UV/black light CFL bulbs housed in 2 floor lamps.

I went along to a local meetup tonight for a computer programming language, Ruby on Rails. I have been away from programming for quite a long time, but I have some personal projects that I am getting my hand in again. I am a total noob, but there is so many community assets / tutorials / and people to help, that I am feeling pretty good about it. I am actually enjoying the process of coding again, and the world has certainly moved on since this "grey hair" last cut code in anger.
I also just stuck a Banksy decal on my mac.
Recently at university I have joined print club! Each week we do something different and this week we learnt how to expose an image on a screen. I’m really enjoying it at the moment and I’d much rather create Artwork the old fashioned way (pen and paper) then on the computer.
For those of you who don’t know what screen printing is, it is a printing technique that is one of the early methods of printing. It involves the passing of ink or any other printing medium through a mesh or 'screen' that has been stretched on a frame, and to which a stencil has been applied.
I like screen printing because out of one stencil you’d be able to get about 50 to 60 prints! The prints are in a way handmade and each one is slightly different, making each print a unique piece.
The above piece is a personal project I’m doing – although it’s in the early stages I feel like I have a very good idea which I’m very eager to explore further. I will be looking in to animal cruelty and endangered species and research facts and apply them into a screen print artwork. I’m interested in adding text onto the artwork to reflect the cruelty being done almost as if the animal is talking to us and telling us how they suffer. I’d like to do a series of eight animal’s prints and each one will adopt a particular colour which also will be metaphoric.
Stay tuned to see if I actually finish this project!
