competition answer

here's the answer to april's competition.

this is the metrocard that i bought...

it's an absolute beauty.

unlike most of the pieces, it's not actually made from a metrocard

rather it is fashioned from a piece of zebrawood to the exact shape and size

as a metrocard, complete with hole. it is however about 8mm thick as opposed

to the paper thin metrocard.

the artist behind it is andrew braun

craftsman, woodworker according to the card on the back.

the clues i was hoping you'd pick up on are as follows:

1. my phone. i've shown my iphone case many times. i really love cartoon wood

the piece i chose was the wood grain that was closest to my iphone case

i've also shown my skatedeck door handles a few times

same huntergatherer cartoon wood effect.

i also thought the piece i bought looked a lot like the wooden doors in my kitchen

which i blogged about in the past.

i've also shown my love of wood by buying an iphone charger made out of...

yep... wood.

wood effect bearbrick

maybe i don't harp on about wood as much as i should. i really do like wood.

like larry david, i respect wood !

another shot i've posted before shows a few woody bits i have...

when i had my original poster of 'the bobo' framed i chose a beach frame to

match the beech hand rails.

also seeing as i post photos of my kicks most weeks, you must have noticed 

the oak flooring at whitfield towers ?

as i mentioned in the competition post, there were quite a few pieces i could

have bought, and as a few of you pointed out, there were many pieces in the show

which tied in with things i like... still, it's the wood that got me.

thanks to everybody for entering.

until next time, etc, etc...
