Hiya. I’ve got a new cat sticker of the legendary DJ Cat Scratch, and it’ll be on my stall at the Vintage and Craft fair on
Sat 13th 11-4pm at St Alkmunds church in central Shrewsbury.
Theres going to be lots of special wares on show with more than 20 stalls - if you’re in the area pop in for a nose.

Here’s what MixMag has to say about DJ Cat Scratch:

“DJ Cat Scratch has been dropping beats and shedding fur on dancefloors since the late ’90s. Known for seamlessly blending tribal rhythms with UK garage, his sets are less a performance and more a spiritual journey with occasional laser pointers.

Having played everything from warehouse parties to suspiciously well-attended garden sheds, Cat Scratch has earned a reputation for keeping crowds moving while maintaining an air of effortless feline cool.”

Summer is already buzzing with Art in the Shire 🙌🏾

Im really happy to be in a couple of exhibitions, some great fairs and festivals, this year’s SY Open and finishing the summer with a residency at the inspiring (to work on a project about the underground scene in Rome).

There is so much more happening - for example the and that I’m writing a full blog on all the wonderful creative happenings up and coming in the shopshire and Welsh borders area.

If you know of an art event happening in your area then feel free send me some details so I can include the info.

It’ll be up on the website mid week… I hope…I’ll try my best

Meanwhile in Amsterdam… a festival of nostalgia because I was lucky to live and work here for a few months back in 2014. I feel so comfy in this city. This time around it was mainly about picnics in Vondelpark with asbo ducks, sketching, eating and other gentle delights.

Warning: kitchen personality upgrade incoming!

Bright and playful, these new illustrated tea towels are made in the UK from organic cotton and designed to bring some joy to the heart of the home.

Yes, they’ll dry your dishes. But they’ll also brighten your kitchen, spark conversations and possibly end up in a frame? (I once framed a Grayson Perry tea towel because it was just too good to use.)

Functional? Yes.
Ordinary? Absolutely not.

It’s UK Small Business Week, so I’m celebrating with 20% off all illustration commissions from 1st–7th June.

Whether you’ve been meaning to commission a beloved pet portrait, capture a special memory, or treat yourself (or someone else) to a personalised piece of art, now is the perfect time.

Choose from lino prints, digital artwork or hand-drawn illustrations — each one created especially for you and impossible to find on the high street.

Thank you for supporting independent artists and small businesses that create unique, meaningful products with heart.

Drop me a message to chat about your ideas.

(Please note: commissions booked this week will be completed by the end of July.)

How are you coping with the 🌞🌞🌞? Have you found a shady glade? Cooling water? Walcot Gardens didn’t disappoint, and neither did J’s paddling pool (we wanted to go to the beach but figured everybody else did too).
I’m glad my garden is wild - very untidy but loads of shade 😎
