21st June - Gru - Despicable Me

Its film Friday again, I didnt have one last week as I was in Cornwall, however I did Captain Barnacles from the Octonauts the other day so he made up for it.

This week we have Gru from Despicable Me, as you can see he has his latest gun invention with him, lets call it the balloononitator. Gru and his gun are made from 18 balloons, mainly black 260s for the body, some 160s for parts of the gun and arms and legs, he has a round balloon for his head and there is a 350 in there somewhere too.

1st June - Minion

I didn't do my usual film Friday sculpture yesterday so I am doing a film Saturday instead, Its a Minion from the film Despicable Me, He is made from 9 balloons, a mixture of 350s, 260s and 160s.

Coming up tomorrow I will be doing a live balloon sculpture at the Aspex Gallery in Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth, it is to help celebrate the Camp Bestival Around the World Tour, between the hours of 11am and 2pm I will be creating my biggest sculpture of the year so far (at nearly 6 feet across and 5 feet tall, eeek) there will be lots of other activities taking place in the gallery and and you can find out more about it here - http://www.strong-island.co.uk/2013/05/30/camp-bestivals-around-the-world-kids-disco-tour/, The sculpture you can see online on Monday.
