Hello!
My name is Platty =)
I'm a big kid! I love making all sorts of things, be it photo-manipulations (Using my own photography), atomic sculptures, clothes and accessories:
www.myspace.com/dirtymonkeyclo… and
www.senseofashion.com/dirtymon… , Drawing, Painting, Animations, Embroidering, Knitting, Crocheting...My favourite thing to do is to link all of these together! =D I'm big into collage! I also write short stories, which I will put up here asap! ...and play guitar/ukulele and sing/write songs.
Generally, I'm a bit of an all-rounder, quite possibly as a result of my ADHD, which gives me the energy to run around doing all this stuff and is most probably responsible for my irratic way of thinking that results in all these ideas...I think it's best to use ones abilities/disabilities and channel them positively and creatively. I also have Hyper Mobility Disorder; which if you look through my gallery at the 'Tangled' series, you will see how I've incorporated that into my art, too! =D
I am especially obsessed with Atoms! I have been working on a big project for a while that involves particle collision; I find the aesthetics of Physics most fascinating and seek to visually represent highly complex reactions and to tell the story of how we have come into existence. Much of my work links back to this in some way or another. Another popular theme of mine that you may notice is trees/nature in general...which again, you will find links back to the Atoms! =D <3 Atoms <3 !
I love making art and I hope you will enjoy the range of work I have to offer! =D
