A money box. I scorched the design of an archery target on the front, including the stand. My granddad upon being presented with it remarked that it was a nice picture of an extra-terrestrial.

My first human skin lampshade.

I murdered Mr. Buckle our religious studies teacher. Being a large gentleman he afforded me the material to make a very sizable pagoda style shade which still has pride of place on the bureau in my laboratory.

sadly i moved country after my exams and wasnt able to retrieve my art coursework. Still makes me smile when i found out they displayed it and used it as good examples of how to lay things out..

This is what I kinda WISHED I did when I was kid.

but I wasn't that kind of a kid..I was an outdoor kind of kid, I was always outside doing something.

I was never the type to sit inside building models out of fucking wood, that would drive me batshit.

Then my Dad bought me my First Motocross bike when I was like 7 years old and that was kind of my childhood.

I was an outdoor kid.
