These are just amazing. They are conkers – horse chestnuts – complete with shell, fashioned from bronze. Saw them a couple of years ago and finally succumbed at…
As you may have noticed I’ve been having difficulty getting back into the swing of this since Easter, what with my creative synapses being a bit on the…
Every_day_art is going on holiday for a few days as I’ll be down in London at Orbital. I will try and put up some pics but I don’t…
