Pyramids morph into a beast

The pyramids in the Scraptors sculpturemad garden have morphed into a humped Beast.

Our frogs find a new home

These frogs are moving from the Scraptors' sculpturemad garden to be in a new nature themed  sculpture trail to be installed later this year at Lakeside Garden Centre in Wiltshire. Moby the Frog, above,  was made by Anthony in 2009 with mobile phone dummies . In the previous year he had made Frederick the Frog against a three week deadline for London Zoo. This was to publicize a world wide campaign to save amphibians. David Attenborough topped it above (see below).

Below Moby the Frog with another at the London Wetland Centre in the Love London Recycled Sculpture Show in 2009 which Anthony curated.

In 2011 the Frogs appeared with a Heron made by fellow sculptors Paul and Rachel at Stourhead, the National Trust landscape garden in Wiltshire as part of a sculpture trail. The tableau below represented one of Aesop's Fables: the frogs asked Jupiter to send a king to govern them and a heron was sent. But the frogs mocked the heron  So the heron ate the frogs.

The Horse's Head resting between gigs

The Horse's Head is resting between gigs  after appearing at Salisbury Cathedral in June at an event commemorating World War 1 . It will appear again at Tidworth Polo Club in Wiltshire on July 14th when the UK Armed Forces will play the USA. It will be on the stall of SSAFA the charity that helps the armed forces. The match will be preceded by a parachute drop. The Horse is wearing a gas mask as was the case in World War 1. Follow link to the Rundle Cup below.
