More unicorns! A collaboration with Berlin street More unicorns! A collaboration with Berlin street artist @roy_draws 

Roy is a friend of mine going back over 15 years to our university days, and has since become somewhat infamous in Berlin for drawing unicorns. The unicorns have become such an iconic feature of Berlins street art scene, that one is even on show at the Berlin Cultural Museum! (I also have one on the side of my house 😁)

Our collaborative unicorns are hand-painted wooden cut-outs, featuring 3 different phrases and signed by both of us. Each an edition of just 25.

Exhibited at @baam.berlin and @haam.hamburg #roydraws #berlinunicorn #showpony #streetartcollaboration #unicorn

New work ‘NEVER GOING UNDERGROUND’. Paint on w New work ‘NEVER GOING UNDERGROUND’. Paint on wood with mirror tiles

Inspired by an early piece of LGBT propaganda, ‘NEVER GOING UNDERGROUND’ is a celebration of pride, with all the power and flair of a disco ball!

The original artwork dates back to 1988 and was used in rallies to oppose section 28.

This piece speaks to me of a refusal to feel any shame, and I love it!

Inspired by an early piece of LGBT propaganda, ‘NEVER GOING UNDERGROUND’ is a celebration of pride, with all the flair and power of a disco ball. 

The original artwork dates back to 1988 and was used in rallies to oppose section 28. When I first saw it, it struck me that as a woman in a same-sex marriage, I’ve been privileged enough to often forget that love within the queer community isn’t and hasn’t always been easy. 

This piece speaks to me of a refusal to feel any shame, and I love it!

‘Snug’. I made this one last year for @thegood ‘Snug’. I made this one last year for @thegoodplace_cafebar (a great spot for coffee and artwork next time you’re in Hastings!)

It’s not often that I blow my own trumpet, but for anyone who enjoys mixing and matching colours as much as I do, you can share in my joy; I visited the cafe and saw the wall Snug was going to be hung on, and only after getting back to my studio did the customer and I decide that it would work well if the batons that fix the letters together were the same colour as the wall so that they blended in.. so I mixed a colour FROM MEMORY… and I find it so unbelievably pleasing just how well the colour matches! I think I might have finally found out what my super power is 🙌🤪 #snug #colourmatch #coffee
What a day! Thank you so much @hollytucker and tea What a day! Thank you so much @hollytucker and team ❤️ Feeling very inspired! I also wish I’d taken more photos, the venue was beautiful!

And so fun to see @bleachboxgallery @richardheeps @rebecca_strickson_illustration @houseoflucyart @auntjoygallery. Already looking forward to the next one! 🙌
✨ Any word, hand-painted any colours, with or wi ✨ Any word, hand-painted any colours, with or without bulbs ✨ 

I've been absorbed for the last few months in moving house and redecorating, which has been one hell of a ride! I'm finally feeling very settled, my house now has enough pink in it again for it to feel like home (and a few secret doorways), and the time "off" has been really good for me creatively. The lightbulbs are firing-up again and I have loads of new ideas! I also have a much bigger work space, and I'm ready to start taking-on commissions for these larger bespoke signs again; Any word, painted any colours, with or without bulbs. Drop me a message 👆

Serving the second most iconic comedy food-item - Serving the second most iconic comedy food-item - The Egg 🍳

I've been pretty quiet on here lately; I finally moved house and studio 2 weeks ago. It's also Easter Holidays so my boys are off school... I did cook-up some Eggs though! 3 to be specific, and they can hang on your wall much like my Smileys - I've made them available on my website with delivery possible before Sunday if you order quick enough 🙂

These came off the back of a bigger project I was working on a few months ago, photos of which I'll share as soon as it's installed! 🍳

Mirror-tiled Smileys.. Bigger, and even a pink one Mirror-tiled Smileys.. Bigger, and even a pink one! I’ve made a very small number of these, and have just added them to my website 🎉 

Hang them on a wall that gets good sunlight, and they are the peacocks of my Smiley collection! I can’t get enough of the light these cast 

A round wooden disc, hand-painted with a smiley face, and finished with mirrored glass tiles around the edge. A wall mount fixing is attached to the back, making them easy to hang on your wall. There are 6 black&yellow ones, and just one pink&yellow 🙂
‘Together’ was a collaboration with @dianarika ‘Together’ was a collaboration with @dianarikasari, and how perfect does it look in her house?! It’s one of the most elaborate pieces I’ve made, and designing it with Diana in mind was a LOT of fun!

When we set out on this project, it was clear from the get-go that we had a similar vision; Much like she does with her up-cycled clothing, ‘Together’ is designed to look as though it was made by chopping up signs I’ve made over the past few years and sticking pieces back together. Whilst also featuring elements and patterns that come to mind when we think of Diana’s collections. I’m so pleased with the finished piece! 🍄 Together is available through my website, hand-made to order 🍄
Following on from the sign I made for our @babesin Following on from the sign I made for our @babesinarmsart exhibition, I created a limited edition print; Celebrating that Mother’s are Mothers and also so so so much more!

[M]OTHER encourages us to explore the conflict we can feel as Mothers, when yearning to also identify as something else; something ‘other’ than.

[M]OTHER also celebrates my personal experience as a mother in a same-sex relationship. Being and having an other-mother, and parenting in an other way.

[M]OTHER is a limited edition giclee print, on archival paper which has really rich a chalky feel. Available in 2 sizes, shipped in time for Mother’s Day 👯

There’s a lotta love going round today. And don’t get me wrong, I love it! But it also felt timely to share a piece I’ve been working on; Inspired by an early piece of LGBT propaganda I saw at @queerbritain, ‘NEVER GOING UNDERGROUND’. It dates back to 1988 and was used in rallies to oppose section 28. When I first saw it it struck me that I’ve been very privileged to often forget that love within the queer community isn’t and hasn’t always been easy.
