This weekend is the start of the Brighton Festival. If youāre looking for something wonderful to do this weekend, do take a look at the Artists Open Houses. I particularly recommend The Little Picture Palace. Full of colour and joy- step into Sarah Arnettās dazzling technicolour dreamscape. Her work fuses illusion, theatricality, and storytelling, where jewelled colours shimmer and mystical creatures wander through exotic lands. Inspired by theatre, travel, rich in visual discovery, each piece is layered with intricate detail and radiant colour. With guest artists and creators alongside her, this vibrant showcase invites you to leave reality behind and immerse yourself in pure imagination.
This year we have doubled the space, with a whole new area opened up, a beautiful gallery space and we have a wonderful garden for tea and coffee, and hanging out!

š„ What a find š„ I couldnāt believe my eyes when I spied these in the charity shop, it must be my day because they are even my size. Iāve been looking for a pair of proper Western cowboy boots, not fashion boots for a long time, but havenāt been able to afford them. These are early 1990s vintage cowboy boots by Tony Lama, which is a long-established American western boot maker (founded in Texas in 1911).
The embroidery is amazing, and because the vent (the foot part) is made from ostrich Leather itās still in incredible condition. They wouldāve been between 350 and $600 new, and the craftsmanship is really amazing. Really made my week!! #tonylama #vintagetonylamaboots #vintagecowboyboots
⨠Studio experiments āØ
Turning leather offcuts + scrap resin into something new.
Paint drips, test pours, glitter, tiny leftovers ā all layered into this chunky tray.
I really love the de-moulding moment when you can see what all those scraps have become
Made from studio scraps, iām always looking for ways to use up even the tiniest scraps.
