material collections

the church in my street just cut down a few of the trees in its grounds and cut them up into small logs. they were all bunched up on the street so i grabbed a few pieces as studio material for future work.

 thought i'd document the origin of the site

i'm pretty sure these were oak trees, common in this area of south yarra

i'll upload some images of the actual segments of the trees that i acquired when i get to the studio. one of the plans i have for them is to use them as stands in sculptural works and also to try painting abstract patterns directly on to the wood.
