We have a lot of fun !

In our job we get to work with some of the best balloon design and trainers across the industry.  We attended a course run by Sue Bowler, Keith Stirman and Dominc Cassidy, which was so much fun!  A mix of making balloon cars and animals.. with a mix like that we were destined to have a fun day of learning! 

 

 

 

We then moved on to Animals!

Large Sculpture Workshop - May 2011



The finished display

In May, we attended a 2 day advanced workshop in Balloon Sculptures with fantastic trainer Luc Betrand. We learnt oodles of tip and techniques to build large sculptures like the one attached.  This sculpture took 2 days with a team of 12 fellow balloonies.  We had a ball!   Below are some photos as we made the individual pieces.



The body - a lot of accurate measuring required!



The hat being weaved with balloons - happy memories of this singing "don't stop the weaving"  (I guess you had to be there to find that funny!)
