This one resurfaced recently. 'WELCOME' for @saturdayjamesmartin @itv

2026, bring me more jobs like this one please 🙂 it was a lot of fun. Obviously exciting for me to work on, and quite a feat too as I had about 3 days to make it! 😅 #welcome #saturdayjamesmartin #bespokesignage #propsfortv

Popped in to @theymadethistagram to see how these little guys were settling in (they looked very at home!)

Thanks for having me @theymadethistagram, roll on 2026🙌

🎉 I’m handing my website over to my kids for the rest of the year! 🎉

A couple of weeks ago my sons (age 5 and 7) and I set about on a project; they wanted to create their own artwork and learn how to sell it. So after painting about 30 pieces, I booked them a stall of their own at The Yard Christmas Market. And they absolutely smashed it!

So as a further experiment, I’m now giving them the experience of selling their work online! I’ve added the last of their paintings to my website. I’ve also turned a few favourites into digital prints. All signed and wrapped. They’re in charge of packaging, pricing and posting too, but I’ll facilitate to make sure any orders do arrive. And I’ve tasked them with thinking about which charity they’d like to share their earnings with. This little project keeps evolving and has thrown up some unexpected and interesting learning opportunities for all 3 of us!

Postage is included, and any orders placed by Friday 19th should arrive in time for Christmas 🎄

Mirror Ball Smiley ~ Party Pack! ✨

If you missed out on picking these up at @art_yard_sale, I’ve now added them to my website; Set of 3 Mirror Ball Smileys, in silver, gold and rose gold!

These mini smiles pack a punch for their size; Hang them on a wall that gets good sunlight, and they are the peacocks of my Smiley collection! Packaged individually, giving you the option to display them as set of 3, or gift them between friends, and if you’re quick, I’ll have them with you in time for Christmas 🙌

'Paintings by Casper and Nico'

Following the fun they had selling their paintings somewhat unofficially at @bottlealleyartmarket, my sons (age 5 and 7) are holding a stall of their very own at The Yard Christmas Market tomorrow 11-4! (Hastings)

The 5 year old is savage and has priced some pieces at £infinity, but I think you'll probably be able to haggle him down #thiskidisgoingplaces #lifeisbeautiful

*FREE A4 ART PRINT - keep reading*. Bit of an experiment, but I thought I’d introduce gift vouchers this year. I get a lot of messages from people wanting to buy or commission a piece of work as a gift, but are unsure exactly which piece/colour/size to choose. So let’s give this a go; gift a voucher instead, I’ll send it to you to put inside a card, and they’ll have the freedom to choose one of my existing pieces, or to commission something entirely bespoke!

✨✨ For vouchers purchased over £50 I’ll post it along with a free A4 gold foil print ✨✨
