On Set Details

Love the colour and print combination from a shoot I styled last year 

Lucky Rat

Walking home from central London last weekend, weaving through China Town and suddenly very tempted by a 'lucky rat'. Feel like we could all do with as much luck as we can get at the moment

Landscape with Clouds

I love the way every inch of the paper is used in this oil painting - a huge landscape squeezed on to an a5 sketchbook page

Paisaje con nubes

Victor Julio González, 2016

Gold and Gingham

Vintage gold - a neck full of talismans

Green Molly Goddard gingham

 And scruffy trainers made for walking in and out of town for lunch with friends

Shepherd's Bush

A trip to Shepherd's Bush market last week, where I have spent many happy hours.

New fabric for a potential cushion

 

Amazing embellished offerings

Gold vine

 And discovered a new Ethiopian cafe in the railway arches which was full of amazing furnishings

Luxury and Excess

Details from a visit to the National Gallery last week - was great to be back.
