Wentworth Show pipe dreams sculpture

Wentworth Show has an innovative sculpture competition every year

The focus is often into turning farming stuff into art

This years theme "Pipe dreams"

any kind of pipe except copper or brass is accepted

Of course I entered alongside my students

and I am pleased to say they all made the deadline.

It took a few days to get all the components cut,

sanded and then painted before they were pop riveted together.

It was daffodil day the day this one came together.

It really has a sense of daffodil.

The other one has a milk bottle top centre and is quite light.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to grow your own pipes.

There was quite a bunch of them once they came together

They will made a colour splash in the garden without the need for water.

As always the ideas run fast as the deadline approaches.

Dave's work reflects the number of days in an Olympic year

Brooke made hers to fly away 

Tina's work has a fish trap feel to it. 

It is free standing and about as big as me.
