What a privilege to frame this set of original Ruth Orkin photographs, ‘The Card Players’ New York City, 1947. The client, a psychotherapist, has come up with a modular system using hooks and chain, so that the rich sequences of emotion in the series can be interpreted and changed at will. Delightful!

Wedding photos deserve special frames, but the images often have eclectic colour schemes. Makers’ Gallery takes great pride in making hand painted frames, using custom mixed colours that really bring the moment to life!

The first series of 10 frames were for the whimsical, playful and creative - a real exercise in breath holding due to their incredibly delicacy. Abi was selected to show in the recent delivering some well deserved recognition for a committed and talented artist!

Not all textiles need to be stuffed behind glass - this blazing silk piece will run lengthwise in a long hallway, fluttering gently as people move past.

Max Bianco is mega talented at living life as art. And it looks like his work has
leaped-and-bounded over the past couple of years!

Head along to The Six Bells this Friday for some raw observations, a breath of fresh air and the obligatory pint of Guinness.

Really looking forward to my latest work being displayed from this Friday at one of
My favourite places on earth!!
I will be there from 4pm until 8:30pm on the Friday night before I shoot off to play at the Portland Arms with the boys for our belated album release’s show

What a mad few weeks I have had recently I want to thank everyone who hosted myself and my band and to everyone who attended the shows and supported us throughout.

I forgot how much I missed the only thing I am good at and ultimately grateful for being reminded of that so recently.

Up the weekend! X
