swap shop

We designed this little poster for our swap shop this sunday...our wardrobes are in much need of a shake up and clear out so we are looking forward to an early spring clean. we are also hoping to raise some much needed money and hugs for our dear friend Pia http://www.piiapauliina.com/ so if you are in London on Sunday 13th, pop into the 'Snug Bar' at Defector's Weld in Shepherd's Bush at 2pm, bring some things to swap and join us for some yummy cupcakes and tunes.

Cosy Inside

The new year has begun and we are staying inside working on drawings and images for a very special project...a magical album cover...little pictures are slowly evolving and we will share them with you real soon.

We are watching this....Maira Kalman, the illustrated woman Video on TED.com and clapping our hands with delight for this wise and witty lady. Daydreaming our way through life!

Museum of Everything

We had breakfast at the 'Museum of Everything' last week with one of our most favourite artists...the legendary Sir Peter Blake . He is such an inspiration and a wonderful storyteller. The Museum is full of vintage circus and fairground art, music memorabilia, Victorian taxidermy, folk art and found objects. Ephemera that Blake has collected, categorised and arranged, over his 60-year career...truely amazing!! Everything we love.

A Festival of Independents

The Tate Modern is celebrating their 10th anniversary and on the 15th May, we visited the 'No Soul For Sale - A Festival of Independents' . It was a real buzz...a fascinating display of exciting independent artists, collectives and non-profit organizations from around the world. We were thrilled that the 'Museum of Everything' selected one of our paintings to be hung in the Tate and it was an honor to chat briefly with Jarvis Cocker, a real ambassador for Outsider Art.
