Stop – rewind and come again! references the fact that The Big Hoot project will culminate in a public art trail throughout the entire city – not just the familiar city centre, but other places of interest that will mean so much to some people, and so little to others.
Artist: Glenn Anderson
Glenn Anderson is a Birmingham art legend, who sites ‘places, adventures, discovery, and the five+ sensory emotions’ as examples of the inspiration for his work. He believes that these experiences are caught and manifest themselves in strange ways, and that the human ‘amplifier’ needs to do something with that energy in positive ways. Glenn’s work features typography – both conventional and non-conventional – and he works in Biro, with aerosol, planks of weathered wood and rusted nails and much, much more.

Auction Price: £4800
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.

The B-25 Mitchell was named in honor of General William Mitchell. Between 1941 and 1945, North American Aviation produced about 10,000 B-25 aircraft, characterized by their distinctive twin tail. The aircraft’s trademark features are its glass nose and tail guns. Some versions, like the one used in the Doolittle Raid in the Pacific came equipped with a turret on the upper and lower side of the fuselage instead of a rear gunner station.

Reprocessed version on my first Siwash Rock picture. Same files, different settings and colors. Although the foreground is the same, the photos look like they were taken at different times of the day. This shot is actually less processed than the first one.
Siwash Rock, located in Stanley Park, is iconic in the city of Vancouver. The rock is subject to a legend by the Squamish people.

In case you missed it from the latest Deadpool flick, Neena Thurman - Domino - has some pretty killer good luck powers. She's also pretty good dual-wielding a couple hardcore blasters!
I'm beginning to feel like I sound like a broken record, but I really dig this Domino figure. I can't believe she goes for less than msrp online!

Happy collecting!

For the record, these ladies are tough, competitive, and there's no question that they can play football. I witnessed a few of them sustain hits that may have sent me to the hospital.
This shot was also off my failed hard drive, so I am one happy camper. It showcases the most prevelant airliner ever built in a way in which it deserves! A truly legendary design.

Many legends have been handed down in the Northern lands about these magical creatures of the woods and caves: the Trolls. Even here in Piedmont stories like these have been handed down by grandparents such as the legend of "Po Valley's faie"... They were small and hairy women always very busy who lived in the mountains in the deep of woods and They taught to women to knit and sew... The farmers who went to the woods to make firewood saw their laundry hanging on the rocks to dry. If they touched it, the "faie" stalked them secretly with stones but if they put it back, the stones throwing stopped. Sometimes you could hear someone singing, dancing and playing in the mountains but if you went to look for them, you couldn't find anyone. Often these stories were told around the fire during the long winter days for amusing and sometimes frightening too the children.
