On Friday night we attended the opening of the latest exhibition by the super talented Sydney artist (and good friend of mine) Liz McKay. Her paintings are just beautiful, so stylish and original and I know how much work goes into each one so I can appreciate them even more. The exhibition runs until the 2nd of July so make sure you check it out at Trevor Victor Harvey Gallery in Seaforth.
I have long been a fan of The Black Apple after finding her lovely prints on Etsy a few years ago. I couldn’t possibly resist her latest offerings, this triple pack of mini notebooks (one grid, one blank and one lined!) and lovely valentine postcards. Her products are always so beautifully packaged and she always includes super cute extras in with your order (like the silhouette bookmark I got with mine). As well as her amazing stationary, she also produces top quality prints of all her gorgeous artworks. If only I had a few more walls! K x
Etsy is a wealth of loveliness and I must say I’m slightly addicted to trawling through its many pages of talent. One of my latest purchases which I’m truely in love with are these beautiful prints by Mon Petit Fantome. But wait, what’s this…?
A beautiful limited edition hand bound print-book of gorgeous melancholic creatures? Say it isnt so! How could I resist? I mean really, does it get much cuter? Now to find a space for the prints! K x
I very recently spent 2 weeks in London – I visited nearly every store I could while we were there and I think by far my favourite was Ryantown, the blog obviously does it no justice. I knew of Rob Ryan before I went to London but apon visiting his store I fell in love with everything in there!!
The outside of Ryantown – there is a flower markets in the street on Sundays selling lots of beautiful flowers and plants (for a fiver only a fiver!)
Lovely kids tees, printed glasses, small papercuts, books, cushions, tiles (of which i now have a few) beautiful large framed papercuts (which i couldn’t fit in my luggage to bring home) and other lovely things.
The entrance (to the right of this photo) has a mural on the wall which was just stunning, I am also the proud owner of a “make your own” Rob Ryan screen printed skirt, I’ll have to get help with that one.
After 2 visits to the store – the selected tiles – I so want to tile my whole bathroom with these, they are just beautiful !! Lx
Last night I went to a really cute little exhibition of Caitlin Shearers works at World Bar in Kings Cross. The Wall at World Bar is a great little art show that runs every wednesday night from 8pm. Caitlin’s works are even more beautiful in real life than in the prints I have and I love being able to have them on my wall. “the guilded mirror” and “I keep my own company” (above) were by far my favourites.
We love this super cute stationary and framed prints by UK designer Hide and Seek. They all feature the cutest little characters including red dressed girls, bears, deers and other foresty things. Limited stock is available at made590 now!
