The Empire Strikes Back: Indian Art Today

went to see this at the Saatchi gallery at the weekend. It was OK. These were my favorite things.

cake

i love you too cake. Especially when you're black forest gateau from patisserie valerie

Free Cake!

I made a Tea Loaf. It was technically free as i didn't have to go out and buy any special ingredients for it. Very simple cake to make. Tastes good. Win.

Couple of Papercuts i have recently done.

Rob Ryan At YSP

I've just come back from the North. Whilst up there i went to the Rob Ryan Exhibition at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. I'd never been to the YSP before, god knows why its real close to me mums and free.
Rob Ryan has taken over the upper gallery space and done decals for the massive windows. Theres a mix of screenprints, papercuts and other things. Well worth the short trip up the M1. Plus the gift shop is amazing, if i wasn't so poor i could have bought a lot of stuff.

We didn't look round the 500 acres of land outside as it was cold and i didn't have the correct footwear on. However i was more than happy to sit in the cafe with coffee and cake and watch people fall over outside.
