Our next upcoming workshop is Beats & Drawing ran by myself and my brother, combining live music with making art — 12th May at The Upcycling Centre
Draw, paint, make whilst being immersed in live meditative musical ambience featuring soft synths, smooth saxophone and sultry vocals, and visuals from @126.studios - a beautiful combination of a gig and crafting, allowing you to be completely in your own world whilst in the company of others

We Looove Reuse, Vol. 10 ♻️
This one’s for the fabric hunters, scrap savers, and patchwork dreamers.
Megan @trouserproject took a reclaimed fabric bundle from us and turned it into a luxe, one-of-a-kind jacket - proving once again that the best pieces can start with what already exists.
Press play for the full transformation ✨

Big new drop on my website - making lots of summery unisex boxer style shorts using second hand shirts, also ventured into making reversible bucket hats out of scraps, so fun 🍒 and some jorts and a layered shirt/T-shirt combo 1of1
Oil painting: found this canvas by a bin, put it down on the table next to these flowers and started painting round the shadows, keeping some of the original lines in
haven’t been loving my paintings recently I’ve been struggling to create something I’m happy with, but I’ve been going out drawing in a little sketchbook with my friend & it’s been very inspiring to be loose with different materials and not mind what it looks like cos I’m just sitting on the beach having a nice time making random marks.
I think it’s helped me to paint more intuitively
