David Shrigley tattooing art lovers - he doesn't tell them what he's going to do - fortunately the tattoo only lasts a week.

Will these new owners of a Shrigley piece ever wash again ?
Next artist is George Shaw, who has been taking thousands of photos of the village where he grew up and then painting images using Humbrol enamel on board - a reference to his painting airfix kits in his childhood. Whilst the paintings are of an ordinary village, there is something haunting and a bit threatening about them.

Hadn't come across Rodney Graham before - two really exciting large scale photos with light boxes to emphasise the colours and contrasts - first "Lighthouse Keeper with Lighthouse Model"

And then "Potatoes blocking my studio door"

Catherine Yass also uses light boxes to make her relatively ordinary images look otherworldly .

Marlo Pascual - shift and fold with a photo

Tomory Dodge uses colour and strong brush strokes to powerful effect,

Johanna Karlsson used silver wire and copper wire for this wall installation - both strong and delicate at the same time.
