daisy progress

pushing_up_daisy_progress4

i finally finished my piece for the ‘pushing up daisy’ project this weekend… the opening is next sunday at 15:00 (het nutshuis – the hague), i haven’t worked with wood very much so far but this project has kind of inspired me to do more with this material, even if it is very unforgiving with mistakes (which was actually the theme i chose for my piece, i hope they like it)

mint condition

erwin_olaf_euro_coin

a remarkable decision by the dutch state: erwin olaf (photographer) has been commissioned to design the new (dutch) euro coins, he has been working on them for months in secrecy… the result is a somewhat geometric portrait reminiscent of the old ‘queen beatrix’ portrait on the guilder coins… not really my taste…
