Art Love

 

Long gaps between posts can only mean one thing - busy busy busy! Just got back into drawing, and these are some of my latest sketches. Hope you like them!

Islington Times

Hello everyone :)

Just to say thank you for all the well wishes while I was in London - I had the BEST time with Louisa and Jo ( her amazing assistant) and met some other incredibly talented and hard working people too, Emma the photographer, Nass her assistant and Roz my fellow Northern (way more Northern than me, Scottish in fact) alien in London! I just had the best time ever, learned so much, saw incredible things, and shot in this beautiful house!

Isn't it dreamy? :)

I also fell a little bit in love with Islington - it's such a varied place with millions of different shops and cafes, restaraunts and bars, and the people were so friendly to me (I got lost around 1000 times and someone always helped me!)

Here's a few photos I found on Google of Islington and it's areas and some shops that caught my eye.

Otto Lenghis Shop on Upper Street!

The Make Lounge

 

And the amazingly decorated Jolie Rouge Tattoo Parlour!

During the summer, I suspected I was falling, and now it's certain - I am in love with London :)

I'm thinking of moving in the next few months into the Stroud Green area...any other Londoners with some good tips on where is nice to live in London?

Also, check out the amazingly talented girls that I worked with while I was there - honestly some of the nicest, friendliest people I have ever met, it was a pleasure to work for them :)

I'm really enjoying my time with Louisa Grey and her lovely lovely assistant Jo Cave at the moment, and really enjoying getting to see parts of London I hadnt seen before. Some parts of what I'm doing is a bit intimidating (I'm awful on phones!) but I'm learning :)

Hope everyones ok

Off to London to be Assistant Stylist for Louisa Grey!

  (Stylist Katy Lassen - Location Louisa Grey)

Hello!

Thank you SO much for all the comments on my last post - I've gained so many new lovely gorgeously creative followers - thank you to each and every one of you :)

So, my newest news - I'm off to London on Sunday to go and work for Louisa Grey, and incredibly amazing stylist for a fortnight - all the pretty pictures on this post are her work!

This fortnight is also a job trial - so keep your fingers crossed for me!

To try and raise Oyster card funds (any Londoners reading this will know what a drain they are on your pennies) I'm selling some Topshop jewellery on ebay- so if any of my fellow bloggers would like to help me out (or fancy treating themselves!) pop over to my ebay shop and have a look at what I'm selling! :) Theres some pictures below :)

Hope everyones ok and had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Remember to check me out on Facebook and Pinterest! x

My Work in Homes & Antiques Magazine December Issue!

 

Hi everyone :) Thanks for all the comments on my last few posts, you're a lovely bunch aren't you :)

Some of you might remember that in the end of summer, I was in Bristol working on Homes and Antiques magazine - the Christmas Issue, and here it is! I've scanned in all the pages that my work is on - the paper fan decorations, the crackers and home made snowglobes are just some of the things I made.

What do you think?

Hope you're all ready for Christmas :)

Pia Jane Bijkerk - My Heart Wanders

 

The beginning of this week has been a fairly miserable one for reasons I am too much of a lady to go into. Let's just say life is giving me lemons at the moment, and I've misplaced my lemonade recipe.

I visited my local library and found this beauty - My Heart Wanders by stylist Pia Jane Bijkerk.

I have never, never, found a more inspirational book. Here is some of her work.

I recommend that everyone should go and buy her books, she is an amazing talent!
