John o Groats pebble/stone sculpture 2010

John"O"Groats the top end of Scotland. What an unbelieveable journey. As you can see from the picture below balancing is in my blood along with sculpture.

This place had biggger material to work with which didn't do much for me because detail is what I was after.

Yet I must admit I think I did the Scots proud once again.

One big massive double decked boat with outboad engines and an octopus as well.

This display took over 10 days to create.

At least 10 - 15 tonnes of stones was moved to create this.

As you can see the wind was as powerful as ever.

I was actually freezing creating this because it is always windy up in Scotland even though the views are great.

What a display?

A lo of work went into this even though not many people got to see it.

Thank you to the German man who stopped and picked up some stones for me and also to the man from Brazil. Also thank you to all those people who helped me out with dinner on the camp site and to the local burger van man for some free breakfasts. Thank you everyone and respect to you all.

Largs, Scotlands Buzzin 2010

Here I am again creating magic up in Scotland at Largs.
Here the display is a big Scottish satire flag with a large bumbble bee.

This is all freestanding on the beach in incredable winds again.
The stripes of the bumble bee go the whole way through so I could try and get it looking as cool as possible.

I even included the cool sun wearing shades and a smiley face with the rays of light flickering of the flag.

In the end this display took ten days to complete with about tonnes of pebbles and stones moved by hand to create this piece.
Thank you to everyone who helped me out with food etc.
Respect to you all.

Pictures Taken Of The Jocks Bay Display in Scotland



This was my attempt of a free standing lighthouse made from pebbles and stones at Jocks Bay Scotland. The lighthouse stood about 3 foot high.

This is the boat I created at Jocks bay with the whale along side which got me an artical in the Scottish Big Issue.

This is a photo of the fish shape stone I selected for putting in the mouth of the big whale.

Here is a photo of the whole display which took an amazing 6 weeks to complete out in the middle of nowhere. See the way I took in the landscape and introduced it into this picture . There is on average at least 20 tonnes if not more pebbles and stones man handled on this beach to create this master piece.

Here is another shot of the whale and boat with the grey/bue stones repersenting the water with even white water around the boat and whale.
Thank you all those people who stopped here to see me and to Koda woof woof.
