Simply stunning. #lcw25 #contemporaryart #contemporarycraft #londonart #londonartgallery

Spring Hollyhocks by @houseofhackney House of Hackney works with crafts people specialised in ancient trades to make pieces that are both sustainable and beautiful. If you haven’t been to their show room in Hackney, pay a visit. With echoes of Victorian craft guru, William Morris, it is wow! #houseofhackney #williammorrisstyle #sustainablecraft #inspiredbynature #hackney #hollyhocks #lovelondonlife

Scrolling through my photos today from last Sunday, when I popped back to Olympia for a second and more in depth visit to @ceramicartlondon The room was buzzing with row after row of ceramacists selling their wares, crafted in all manners of shapes, sizes and colours. Some designed to be used, others purely decorative. The more I looked, the more I saw and the more I wanted to buy. On my hotlist: Round vases by @julie_ayton Blue vessel by @peterbeardceramics Decorative plate by @barrystedman Sculptural ceramics by @kerry_hastings_ceramics #ceramicartlondon #ceramicart #collectableceramics #decorativepieces #ceramacists #ceramics #treasureandkeep

Visitors to @ceramicartlondon last weekend got their creative juices flowing sculpting objects out of clay as part of an evolving installation hosted by @london.potters @potclays donated a ton of clay for visitors to get their hands dirty, all of which will be reclaimed and reused by London potters. A win, win! #ceramicartlondon #ceramicart #ceramics #olympialondon #lovelondonlife

Raining cats and dogs yesterday, but a Mother’s Day trip (with kids in tow) to @theotherartfair @trumanbrewery brightened the soul. The work of artist, Steve McPherson especially grabbed my attention. He creates spectacular collages made from collected plastic debris that washes up on the coast near Margate. Whilst hard to ignore the environmental undertones, each piece also tells a personal and collective narrative. #theotherartfair #theotherartfairlondon #trumanbrewery #saatchiart #art #collage #treasureandkeep
