MRS B 549 Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 My daughter and I were at Wollaton Hall today to see the Willard Wigan exhibition. His work is really difficult to comprehend and is amazing. For any of you who haven’t been it is definitely worth a trip. It’s on until August. We were in Long Eaton beforehand so nice to run through Bramcote and Wollaton en route. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,521 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 The name didn't ring any bells so I had to look him up. Then I realised I had heard of him, but hadn't remembered the name. I agree his work is amazing, but obviously can't be seen by many people at any one time. https://www.willardwiganmbe.com/my-work Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beekay 5,229 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 @plantfit, hey Rog., has it inspired you to model one of your NCT buses into the eye of a needle.? I'll lend you a couple of paint brushes and a pair of tweezers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
plantfit 7,665 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Got the brushes and the tweezers it's just the good eyesight that's missing, they are works of art though, would be nice to see a Leyland Atlantean in one, Rog Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MRS B 549 Posted May 15 Author Report Share Posted May 15 I really couldn’t get my head around the talent that he has. From being paraded around his school as a dummy he has progressed to be a genius. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
