New Mini Print: Fly Me to the Moon

 

I can't help but sing this in my head every time I see this little print. It's part of our growing mini print range. A range of prints with simple messages and quotes. Easy to pop into a frame (we use Ikea, but you don't have to!), or just pin onto a board, clip with a wooden peg, or tape to your wall.

Art Print Friday : Prost! Here's to a great weekend.

Every Friday we like to celebrate the week that was, the weekend to come and a favourite print.
This week we celebrate our boys receiving awards at their school assembly. They both got one - it was a complete coincidence, but extra brilliant as they both came home beaming with pride.

Our favourite print this week is PROST! With it's bold colours and pure happiness, this is a print bound to make you smile, and may even make you thirsty.

Enjoy your Friday night with a beer, something sparkling or maybe a hot chocolate!!  Either which way, enjoy your Friday and celebrate something - big or small! xx

NEW! The Owl and the Pussycat Art Print

'The Owl and the Pussycat went to sea, in a beautiful pea green boat. They took some honey and plenty of money wrapped up in a five pound note.' A lovely, and slightly kooky poem by Edward Lear, first published in 1871.

When we released our first edition of this print back in 2008, it was a big hit. Not just with new parents, but also with newly weds. We found out that this poem is a very popular reading at weddings. And why not, there's nothing more romantic than being serenaded.

So now, after the first edition sold out about a year ago, we decided it was time to bring this little favourite back again. It has been given a new look, but the sentiment is still the same.

It's available in 3 sizes to suit a wall, big or small. The 8x10" and 12x16" is printed on a lovely textured art paper, and the 50x70cm is printed on beautiful 300gsm cotton rag acid free art paper, using quality archival inks.

We hope you love this new print as much as we loved creating it. xx

Happy Mother's Day

It's almost Mother's Day......

Here's a little print to celebrate being a Mum. I think this message is something the Mum's with grown up kids have lived through, and Mum's like me with little ones think they will hold their kids hands forever..... Time flies kids..... we all know it. Every Mother's day I look at my boys and think, wow, how big you are, where have these last 8 years gone??

I love holding my little boys hands. The littlest one will let me hold his hand for quite a while, especially as we walk along. The older one is a bit more selective, but I sneak them when he's not paying attention.

The art print is in the shop now, and we are giving every customer who purchases one a free sheet of 'Textures' wrapping paper and a 'Wishes' gift tag.

Have a beautiful Mother's Day everyone xxx

Mountains Limited Edition Art Prints

Our art this year has seen both Nick and I look at travel and interesting places as a source of inspiration. Both near to home or on the other side of the world.
Here you will see my first new limited edition Art Prints for the 2014. My look at travel is a little more abstract, and looking at the greater world, not in detail, but in a feeling or mood it may create. A little bit dreamy.

They are available in super large sizes of 70x70cm and 120x120cm. Sit one over a sideboard, in your living space or bedroom. Happy dreaming for far away places you could go. xx

New Birth Prints !

New birth prints! Hooray. There really is something for everyone.... some super cute ones with sweet illustrations (that may look at little familiar) and some beautifully graphic ones that will last a lifetime. Not to mention the existing range, which still remains as the most favourite gift to give amongst our lovely and loyal customers. So now you have a few more to choose from! We hope you love them. x

Japanese Fish Prints

 Nick created these lovely Japanese inspired art prints about 6 months ago, and recently it seems that people have discovered them! Sometimes things just need to grow on you. We recently had a customer order 2 of them on the 50x70cm size, and the colours looked beautiful. It's so wonderful to see customers selections and what they put together.

See them on our web site.

New Limited Editions.. New versions... Dots and Geo Prints

These little prints were completed this past week, along with 3 others. They are the first of a new range of 40x50cm limited edition prints, in brand new colours and styles. Lovely lightly textured rag paper, bright colours. Happiness. They are an edition of 50 and will be available in the coming weeks - both online and in some of our favourite stores. xxx

WHY NOT SALE!

Not your regular set of three.

One of the cool things that happens, is customers putting together a set of prints that we would never have thought to put together ourselves. We sometimes design them as sets, and sometimes as stand alone pieces, but they are always created to belong together as a whole range. So its so fun to see what wonderful mixes and matches come out of a customer standing at our stall, pouring over the prints and picking an unlikely set of three. Sometimes it's the colours that tie them together, sometimes the theme and sometimes nothing at all!

So the next time you are having trouble choosing a set of something, they don't need to match completely, try a bit of a clash and it might just work!

Piccadilly Market..... on this Sunday!

After a little early Winter hibernation in Melbourne, we are back ready for our first market in ages. As much as I have enjoyed the break (well, not that we have been sitting around looking for things to do, we have actually been super busy creating the new range - more on that another day.) I am excited to be part of Piccadilly Market next Sunday and to catch up with our lovely fellow market stall holders, who are all wonderfully talented and lots of fun. Purely selfish reason really,  but I love a catch up and a chat, so can't wait.  Oh, and there may even be a few new prints for sale - super sneak peak!!We've working on these for ages, so it will be good to get them out there finally. xx

A set of three...

We often have people ask about which prints we would put together in a set of 3. So I thought I would start putting together a few ideas .... The first one includes "In The Garden". "What a lovely day" and "Red". All our prints are created using the same colour palette and are created to work together or stand alone. You can match them based on theme, colour, style or my favourite - the prints you like the most!

Mathilda's Market this Sunday!

This Sunday is the first Mathilda's Market for the year and will be at the lovely Hawthorn Town Hall... in Melbourne. We have heaps of new art as well as some oldies that are no longer available on our web site... snap them up before they all go!!!

Looking forward to catching up with fellow stall holders and customers. For all the details visit the mathilda's site.

See you there... xx
