Research on Richard Sweeney

I am looking at Richard Sweeney's work as he is a guest speaker in three of the workshops that have been put in place for us, he is going to be sharing different skills and techinques. His work is based around different styles of creating models, forms and sculptures out of paper. Looking at Richard Sweeney's work he is also interested in photography and craft which shows thoughout his work.
