Navy

                                     
The Nothing But Navy Pop Up shop has opened it's doors again,this time at Luna and Curious on Calvert Avenue, E2.

I have created some things especially for the shop: A set of screen printed 'Hat' greetings cards- 4 designs each with a different hat on (my obsession with hats and headresses continues); and a new 3 colour screen print I have been working on, 'Floris' (see below). The print is a reworking of the 'Flora' pattern I designed a few weeks ago,  adapted into navy blue tones. It is an edition of 6.

I also screen printed organic cotton tote bags; each with a navy Owl design. 

The shop opened today, until Wednesday 4th April, and is well worth a peruse, it is packed to the rafters with wonderful navy items.

The Ride Journal 6

Here is another illustration contribution I made recently for the beautiful 6th issue of The Ride Journal. The piece accompanies 'Brightness To My Wheels', a poem about the thrill of cycling through a city by Helen Griffiths.

If you haven't seen The Ride Journal I thoroughly recommend a look, this issue particularly has some wonderful stories and images including a photographic piece by Frank Schott, and extracts from the fantastic photo series 'Totems', by Alain Delorme. Below are my favourite pages:

Financial Times 10/3/12

I illustrated an article for this weekend's Financial Times, Life and Arts section.  The piece was commissioned to accompany a diary piece by Gideon Rachman; an account of his time spent in China recently and, among other things his experiences of the technological restrictions and censorship there.

The piece can be viewed online here
