Swinging Weekend with Ann Carrington

song pairing: The Real Soul Bossa Nova by the Swingle Sisters


LOVING the work of

London artist

Ann Carrington
*******************

up close ...


Her wall art and sculptures
will come from many mediums
most often everyday objects such as
buttons ... safety pins ... silver flatware

Do you watch Bravo's Nine by Design ?
You probably recognize this piece hanging above Robert and Cortney's 
master tub

DIVINE !!!


So many buttons ... such detail !


Despite the familiar design and simple materials 
she still can fashion the most elegant Union Jack !



Oh my ... the Queen has never looked edgier !
This piece was made from chains and safety pins !

What do you think she makes out of old silver forks ?




Horns ... But of course !
