A Scoop mention!

Hey look! Our exhibition, Beast for Thee got a little mention in the current Scoop Homes & Art, Spring 2011 issue. It's on page 207. Thanks Scoop!

Owl mask ready for Halloween mischief

I designed this owl mask for the Beast for Thee exhibition, but since it is Halloween on Monday I thought it might be useful for a little trick o' treating too! You can download the PDF here - http://www.mediafire.com/?237txy2qib0io. Cut it out, colour it and staple some elastic to the tabs at the sides and you'll be ready for some nocturnal revelry.

We all designed a paper mask each for Beast for Thee so if you are nearby you can collect all four masks from The Oats Factory.

Have a fun Halloween everyone!
