WHO AM I?

My photo
Jonty
Ashington, Northumberland, United Kingdom
My name is 'John' but here in cyberspace i prefer my friends to call me 'Jonty'. I guess you want to know a little about me?. I am British still living in my native country. A sucker for punishment i suppose whilst the rest of the world enjoys beautiful weather lol. I live in the North eastern part of the North East of Northumberland, right on the coast line in a small place called Ashington. Over the years i have made art from many many materials from being a young child through to adulthood. They include paper, foil, wood, clay, metal, plastic, string (yes string) & well many many more just too numerous to list here. I a few years back got back into paper or more specifically - paper mache. Already as part of a fantastic paper mache grop http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PaperMacheArt/ i decided it was time to share my art in a blog form too in the hopes of inspiring more people to take up this versitle & easy art form. So here is my blog. You can contact me here: jontytheghoul@btopenworld.com
