Too tired to sleep


Visions for those too tired to sleep,
These seeds cast a film over eyes which weep.

Where's Wally ???

Thank you everyone who sent pictures of the orange poppy poster to me for my underground project. I've been really touched by the response I've had and its going to take me a while to complete but I'll share as soon as I am able.

I must also thank ArtsHub for writing about it, and of course I'm also grateful to the folk at Art Below who organise this fantastic concept of reclaiming public space from ad-land. Its a great idea and I'm thrilled to take part.

Art Below are running a special feature in the next show called 'Where's Wally'. There will be a life size image of the famous character on a poster somewhere on the London Underground. The first person to discover his exact whereabouts will win a free poster space in this year's Summer Art Below Campaign.

You can fill your space with whatever image you want (within copyright reason of course) so it could be a message to a loved one, a birthday greeting or a piece of your own art.

Why not have a go?

So, if you spot Wally then email info@artbelow.com stating the exact platform and station where you discovered him.
Happy hunting.

London calling - help wanted

Big day for me today. (UPDATED with latest project details)

Its the day a huge poster made from one of my works will be going up in the London Undergound as part of an ongoing art initiative from Art Below.

This poster is 1 metre x 1.5 metres and various sizes are available to buy from the Art Below website as well.

I am hoping to get down to London to see it next week, as I want to collect as many photos as I can of the poster in situ. Why?
Well, I have this idea for a national project in mind - I don't want to give away too many details just yet - but I need as many photos as people are willing to send of themselves in front of the poster. You can email me them (suecook@picturedreams.co.uk) or message them to me by mobile (email to ask for my number)...I don't mind which.

Promise to reveal more later but it would be really cool to get as many different people young or old in front of this poster. And everyone who sends me a photo will get credit in the piece when its completed.

Please help me if you can....

You'll find my poster at Vauxhall Tube station Platform 2 Southbound.

EDITED TO ADD: The poster is up until March 12th so please send me your snapshots as soon as you can!

Thanks. x
