Prints on hard surfaces

Can't believe it's late January but am so enjoying the mildness and sunshine! I am very pleased to report that Betty's Revenge has been picked out by the global forecasting site WGSN on its homebuildlife blog.


This screen print design was based on a combination of 50s and Islamic art and printed onto wooden flooring.

Rainbow Warrior III passes the print studio!

Typically I'm in bed with flu but thankfully Nick Cobbing can be relied upon to take a good picture! My print studio is right next to the Thames Barrier, the new Rainbow Warrior is pictured sailing into London on her maiden tour, after leaving Amsterdam on Sunday.

Vinyl lovers look away now



At the Artsmart market I had the pleasure of a stall next to House of Jamal and Tamara Walsh. Jamal produces signature perfumes which seemed to prove irresistible to passers by. He also produces bespoke perfumes, probably not for my budget, but well worth checking him out.


Tamara creates hair pieces using melted down vinyl. I hope no-one accidentally left their vinyl record shopping by the stand! The hair pieces are primarily red and/or black or bold colours and are very striking. Several are not for the faint hearted and are bold and edgy while others are more feminine (some are very floral) or simple. Her pieces drew lots of attention. An absolute must is checking out her range of wigs.
