Slick of Colour

Morris Louis, Gamma Tau,1960

Clyfford Still, PH- 131, 1951

A slick of colour this morning in grey central London as I had a look round Hauser & Wirth on Saville Row.

Both paintings are part of an exhibition showing the collection of Reinhard Onnasch and spanning the London, Mayfair and Piccadilly galleries. Ends 14th December 2013.

One Off: Inspiration for Autumn's outfits

 

 

Lots of checks, layers, texture, colour. Bit of a mish mash but I like the idea of having a different look for everyday.

There's a tiny taster of what's to come from One Off this Autumn here.

Metal Hobby

I find it incredibly hard not to keep broken and discarded necklaces, bracelets and earings in the hope of giving them new life. The little baskets on the counters of charity shops are usually filled with tat, but you can find a few gems too. You can put pretty much anything on a chain, using safety pins if nothing else. I also can't really walk past a 20p gumball machine if it offers jewels of some description. In Manchester we usually use buying tonic as an excuse to have a go and get some 20p gems from the newsagents.
