Hit me with my Rythm Stick

I have finished my latest artwork. As you know I ran out of Blackthorn cider cans, so I searched in my box to see if I had anything of a similar colour. Bingo, Tesco cider cans will do the job. So here it is, I call it my Rythm Stick. I tried siting it in several different places, the bottom of it is in a bucket so it has to be hidden behind something. When the sun catches it, it sparkles.

I cut the tops and bottoms off the cans with a pair of nail scissors, then I cut the tube open with big scissors, to make a flat sheet. Next I made lots of cuts along the bottom edge, to within one inch of the top edge, like a frill. Then cut the piece in half, and curled the frills using the small scissors. It's very sharp, I've got several cuts on my right thumb.

Next I got a broom handle and starting one foot from the end, I wrapped the frill round and made sure it was a tight fit, and nailed each one in place. Keep adding more frills, till I got to the other end.

I think it's interesting, a sort of futuristic plant from the 22nd century, when man has destroyed everything growing in the ground. My gallery is coming along nicely.
