Martin Squires Deck and Detail!
Take a look at this evocative painting by Martin Squires, at first glance it appears dark and mysterious but your eye is drawn to the lower third to the wonderfully painted tribal scene suddenly conjuring up ideas of magic, the occult and half forgotten stories.

How To Make A Skuitar!
Skuitar from Lawrence Roper on Vimeo.
Check out Log Roper's amazing entry into the Decked Project! Log has created a "Skuitar" from an old skateboard that has grinded the streets of Birmingham, and an electric guitar -genius! Of course it is fully functioning and the only way to play is to slide with a truck! We are hoping to get Mr Roper himself to play this musical wonder for us on the private view (Coningsby Gallery 6.30 - 9.00pm Wednesday 18th August)
