I THINK …..

…… it’s about time that new avid readers were exposed to one of my sculptures.

Punk Rockers

This magnificent ‘thing’ is called Punk Rockers ……. I do hope you can work it out for yourselves. Made from lead, galvanised nails and lumps of marble from Portugal that remind me of brains. I have no idea where this is now …….

I have asked Penfold to put a sculpture tab at the top of my blog so people can go to my Flickr portfolio of sculptures ……..but he hasn’t …….. oh well. There aren’t many in there yet but one day when I’m not frantically busy I’ll add some more. (Meanwhile the world has to hold it’s breath. Lo,TG Ed)

Match of the Day

Two matches

    ….”no idea where this is now…..”
    You mean it has been stolen? I’ve been onto the relevant authorities….http://www.interpol.int/public/Data/WorkOfArt/Items/Data/1061/1061744.asp
    Are you sure your Fracretary hasn’t put it somewhere safe?

    daddyp replied:

    It’s either in storage or I gave it to someone …… or Fraccy nicked it and sold the lead [for my own safety] …….

    I said…’something’. Where did it go?

    daddyp replied:

    I can see it …. ’something’ loud and clear ……

    That’s actually very good DP. It’s very ’smiley’, which made me think how my opinion of punks has changed over the years from utter fear and dread, to a kind of endearing nostalgia. Weird.

    daddyp replied:

    I ended up quite liking the punk movement ….. and the odd ones you see nowadays definitely make me smile …. let’s POGO DANCE!!!!

    gitwizard replied:

    Love the stuff on your Flickr page, think I once saw the Lead Bananas at a punk festival….

    daddyp replied:

    I’m trying to find a really cheap [or free] guitar [can be broken] to cover in lead – gotta make a ‘Lead Lead Guitar’ …… obviously ……

    gitwizard replied:

    Do you think you could cover my Kryptonite bicycle lock in lead ?

    daddyp replied:

    Now that’s a challenge ……

    Ooh, no – why waste such an opportunity?

    testicular AND brainy. how’d you manage that?

    daddyp replied:

    I’m a figment …… obviously ……

    If those are testicles they’re off a hedgehog.

    daddyp replied:

    Of course I wouldn’t know that ….. *looks at Sledpress quizzically*

    I must admit I thought it was a recliner for an Indian Fakir.

    daddyp replied:

    Dammit ….. I wish I’d thought of that …… *sulk*

    That is a really cool sculpture. I recognized the punks and smiled before I got the pun. I guess punk could be pun(k) as well. You’ve just blown my mind.

    daddyp replied:

    My goodness your mind must be in a very fragile state …… cuppa tea?

    Lead? You work with lead often? This explains so much…

    daddyp replied:

    I used to do a ’stand-up’ routine [for friends and family] saying “We used to have lead water pipes when I was growing up …… never did me any harm ….” and proceeded to a long and very boring monologue disproving this ……

    Actually, if you use it upside down, you could tenderize two steaks at once. EUREKA! You’ll be as famous as Ron Popeil is in the United States. Just promise me you won’t go and get all plastic surgeried up like he did… pleeeeease…. and (since I’ve been your loyal fracretary and all) can you also promise me all kinds of freebie products? I’ve totally given up on ever getting chosen for any of those FMB freebies (since clearly no one in the UK likes Canadians) so my only hope is in your fame (and guilting you with my years of fracreservice)

    daddyp replied:

    I promise young Fraccy, you’ll get everything you deserve ….. and then some ……. tee hee heeeeee

    Really like this sculpture and the Flickr ones – is there no start end to your talents?

    I actually have an old guitar which needs binning as ex bought a cheap one to paint in an artistic fashion and never got beyond the first coat. If you are serious about wanting one, I would be honoured to aid your artistic endeavours.

    daddyp replied:

    Oooooo – I’m getting excited now!!!! I’ll email you forthwith …….. whoooooosh

    You must have DA (deviant art) and upload it there daddy… also, I will message you one of these days. I haven't been writing much because I have been putting up my art stuff and I do so miss our convos. I have been reading your blog tho :P

    daddyp replied:

    I think number one son has put stuff on Deviant Art. Actually, you’ve reminded me, I must put some more piccies on Flickr …… [I have no idea why Askimet spammed this comment ...... you must be a spam sandwich!]

    Drunken Madeleine replied:

    Ah yes.. penfold must do DA… looking at his stuff, I’m pretty sure he must be a DA guy.

    daddyp replied:
