1.This is the first of my pieces that I created to support the campaign. This depicts the demolition of The Crooked House and it once standing upon its land.
2. My second piece also depicts the demolition with features from its interior. The signs were inspired by those erected at the site after the demolition. A statement piece telling everyone that we love The Crooked House.
3. Here the years it was built and destroyed are marked with a surround of the famous marbles that strangely appeared to roll up hill.
4. A celebration of the campaigns Facebook page and the desire to get The Crooked House re-built brick by brick.
5. My fifth piece depicting the fire at The Crooked House in a Pop Art style with a background that once again recognises the illusion of those marbles rolling up hill.
6. A celebration of The Crooked houses long life, those marbles and a very well used hash tag.
7. This marks the finding and restoration of the Henry Wintermans bell that once was pride of place on the bar at The Crooked House.
8. The fire is once again recognised here with the words taken from a sign that was once displayed upon a wall within The Crooked House.
9. This was a piece viewed in different ways when put up on Facebook. There are two different images here that show what people saw. The image with the Black Country flag is the original, the piece is a marble with a wrecking ball swinging behind. I changed the image in the post to change the whole thing to a wrecking ball as you will be able to see here.
10. A stencil that I created that can be mounted on different colours or used to create multiple pieces that depicts a phoenix rising from the ashes representing The Crooked House.
11. A positivity piece that recognises what can be.
12. Inspired by Stu Hall's YouTube video of The Crooked House just days before tragedy struck. A view through the window that you see in his video.
13. These model images depict the demolition and surroundings of The Crooked House. I created graffiti on the walls that recognise where it stood, those marbles and campaign hash tags. The rubble includes items that you would see on and within The Crooked House.
14. Another piece inspired by Stu Hall's video, this is my take on the black sign that stands on the walk up to the site where The Crooked House once stood.
15. I created this piece after an idea from Ian Young who suggested that I play around with the initials of Save The Crooked House by adding an I in the middle to suggest stitching The Crooked House back together with the use of chains to represent the stitches.
16. A piece that recognises those special wedding days celebrated at The Crooked House and the hope that more can be celebrated there again in the future.
17. This image is one of three that makes up a piece that thanks Squire Locks for the donation of locks and chains to secure the containers that hold the bricks of The Crooked House. You will see in these images that the containers, Squire locks and the bricks which are wrapped are all included. The container opens to reveal the thank you on the inside of the door and the palleted bricks.
18. The crooked house in an autumn scene framed by a scene of mining and the walls standing that celebrate the history of The Crooked Houses land.
19. A celebration of the food once served at The Crooked House. A design for a wall mounted menu carrying the last menu served at The Crooked House under its last landlord Lee Good child.
20. A set of four silhouette postcards inspired by postcards of The Crooked House gone by. Here generations , changes of surroundings and interiors are seen, its history is recognised, its demise over the two days are depicted and the love seen in the sillouettes represented the loved that everyone had and still have for The Crooked House.
21. Suggested by Lisa walker who posted to mark 100 days of the tragedy unfolding. This thanks Giddy the fire dog, her handler and their fellow fire personnel who fought the fire on the first fatal night and undertook the investigation after the building was completely destroyed.
