Yes I’ve been completely rubbish at creating anything for bloody ages and yes Im sat on a beach still not making anything (having a very lovely time tho 😁) BUTTTT I do actually have a little something to show you! I had a bit of a creative flurry several months back and can now show you ‘something I made earlier’. This colourful, textured, graphic little piece is the latest EDIBLE#2 artwork for the newly released EP ‘YOU CANT STOP ME’ by the gorgeous @ariellefree with @ediblerecords. Lots of materials and techniques used on this one; screen printing, stencilling, spray paints, all manner of paints, inks, pens and pencils! And of course the colours (hello neon), expressive marks and bold shapes to reflect the happy mood of the music! Hope you like it 💕 . . . . . #colourfulart #colourcollector #colourmyhome #colouryourhome #colourfulhomes #colourlover #expressiveabstract #colourandtexture #colourfulhome #colourfullife #colourful #colourfulinteriors #colourfulhomevibe #expressiveart #abstractobsession #flaming_abstraction #abstracto #abstractorg #contemporaryartcollector #colourfulabstract #abstracted #brightartwork #artaddict #mixedmediaart #originalartwork #smallartwork #smallart #urbanartwork #graffitistyle

A little sneak peek of the @thewardrobetheatre Autumn magazine featuring my art on the cover! The design is a cropped snippet of one of my fav pieces from my Club Collection - ‘This Is Mint’ (of which I still have a very limited number of A1 giclee prints, scroll on to see the full artwork) The Wardrobe Theatre is Bristols award winning fringe studio venue and arts hub for alternative theatre, comedy and music. So cool! Find them in the @oldmarketassembly building 😁 I am SO pleased that my art is adorning their Autumn magazine ANNNNNND I will be exhibiting some art in the hub from September too! Woohoo! Had I better make some new art?! . . . . . #abstractartlovers #loveabstractart #colourlover #textureandcolour #colourandtexture #colourandpattern #colorfulabstractart #colourfulart #colourfulartwork #mixedmediaart #mixedmediaartist #abstracted #brightartwork #abstraction #expressiveart #colourfulprints #colourfulprint #giclee #gicleeprint #bristolabstractartistsclub #bristolartistscollaborative #bristolartscene #bristolcreatives #bristolexhibitions #bristolcolour #magazinecover

Hey, hey! So……..the @eatseverything brief was pretty brief! ‘One massive brightly coloured piece of art that will be divided up into 10 smaller pieces of art’…..but this was enough to go on and gave me a lot of freedom to do whatever I wanted which is pretty cool ☺️. Each piece would then become the art for each of the next 10 releases on the @ediblerecords label (coming soon!) This is the largest piece of art I’ve ever attempted and I wasn’t sure how my art would translate into large scale. But i just went for it in my usual way - no rigid planning, just got some tunes on and began with some loose expressive marks and textures, building up the layers and making decisions as I went. It was a really fun, enjoyable process which is what it’s all about! 🥰 This piece went through MANY stages and transformations, dunno if you’d like to see some of this? K xx

I’ve got something to tell you! A while ago the DJ and legend of banging tunes that is @eatseverything asked me to create some artwork for his upcoming releases on his @ediblerecords label! 😱😱😱😱😱 I was so excited to do this project because it completely fits with what I want to express with my artwork. I’ve always loved the colourful vibes and fun atmosphere of clubbing, raving, parties and festivals (still do) surrounded by friends and music, it’s when I feel most excited and alive - and it’s this feeling I want to express through my art. And never more so than during the last year or so of the pandemic where all clubs and festivals have sadly been closed down! @eatseverything is from my home town of Bristol, I love him and I’ve danced my little legs off to his tunes hundreds of times… so yeah, this was my dream project! I’ll tell you/show you more about the project and the process of making the art in the coming days/weeks so follow along if you’re interested….. Bring back the parties eh??!! 🎉🥳💃
