i don't know much about art but...

I am dead impressed by spidermonkey's gcse show.











We don't get them back until October because he's been selected for the moderation sample so Edexcel are busy losing thoroughly critiquing and evaluating them as I type.  We have a few spots in mind for various things (though creepy graveyard monster will be banished to spider's room or the games room).  Wondering about the swirly galaxy and skulls one in the kitchen, but would skulls over the dining table put people off their food?

Nice!I especially like the first one.

Thanks! The first is my fave too, and also photographed best. It was his mock exam piece so painted/drawn/glued from scratch in under 10 hours. Lots of planning and practice first though.
the red and yellow thing in a box is the one he was talking about in the pub when we met.

Heh. Teenage boy... skulls... Nope. I see no connection there.

He drew a LOT of skulls.

I agree, but I may be biased.

I am so impressed by the galaxy with skulls. I also think the monster must find a place where he can be seen
