“If someone you love did not make it on that trip
you can take it for them, with them.

If someone you love did not witness that milestone
you can show them anytime you like.

If someone you love did not get to do their living
you can finish those dreams on their behalf.

The beautiful thing about love, you see,
is that death need not stop life.

If you carry someone in your heart
you can take them with you
anywhere you like”

🌈 Today I am thinking of my sister Emma, as I do everyday 07/07/87 - 03/05/08

🌈Today I am thinking of you, and the person you miss.

🌈Today I am holding the family close

🌈Today I hold those in conflict zones experiencing unimaginable grief, in my heart.

“| have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesteryears are buried deep, leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can.
Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead.
Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance.”

~Beryl Markham - West with the Night, 1942.

💫 Friday feel good 💫

Delighted to share this recent commission for my lovely client who wanted a keepsake of the Edwardian London Terrace they have now outgrown.

♻️ A total joy rummaging through my paper stash to recreate these London Stone Bricks; using old Amazon sleeves, ancient file divider card, vintage dress pattern tissue, and discarded manilla envelopes.

✂️This a2 sized portrait will hang in their new home, ready for more happy memories to be made around it.

🏡 If you would like an original, bespoke collaged artwork to celebrate your favourite place then get in touch via the email button in my profile or the submission page on my website.

📔 I have limited availability scattered throughout the year, so be sure to reach out if you have a first time home, forever home, childhood home, wedding venue, favourite shop or landmark you would like immortalised in paper.

🚨Places are important🚨

Thrilled to share this recent artwork; a gift commissioned by .fullerton for husband Jack’s birthday over the weekend!

So very happy being asked to recreate this wonderful couple again in collage. I captured them a few years back, in their first home, ahead of their wedding day (a really thoughtful gift from groom to bride the night before they exchanged vows 🥹🩷).
(Swipe to see!)

This wonderful couple have had a busy few years; getting married, moving home and now with two babes in tow!

Such a joy to depict this significant chapter of their life in this bespoke, paper artwork.

💚💫Much love and many thanks Julia & Jack 💫💚

“I don’t ever crave extraordinary moments anymore.
Just small, gentle hums of beauty streaming from below, above, and beyond simply from paying attention.
Sound. Light. Shadow. Art. Warmth. The night. The morning. Dreams that are not faraway but exist right here - already in my days.”

❄️A joyful, snowy, sunny day remembered in paper ❄️

Happy anniversary to my lovely clients who married on this week many moons ago, returning to this, their first home as the snow fell around them.

This is my fourth piece for this lovely couple who I have had the total pleasure of following their life journey together, through collage.
