Art for me comes in many forms. So today’s home gallery tour is a look at a small selection of the different pieces around our eclectic home.
Cornwall OPI Toy maker Jane Ryan’s wooden beating heart was an anniversary gift to each other. One Christmas I had family group ones made as presents.
I’m a big fan of
British contemporary artist - Rachel Grant
We have two of her canvases and I’ve given many of her prints as gifts.
Another of my favourite art forms is papier-mâché.
This sweet thing sits on my kitchen unit watching me make a cuppa.
She’s made by English maker Doris n Doris.
Wall art I’ve received from friends and another piece by Doris & Doris
A couple of years ago I came across English ceramicist
What Kate Loves
Another favourite of mine is this piece by ceramic/textile artist Karen Shapley who I met at a makers event in Pendle.

I’m not kidding I could keep my home art gallery tour going for weeks, the more I look round.

Hope you will stay with me.
Back soon with
‘Life in the living room’
Now more than ever it’s important to support
British makers
How wonderful to see more of your eclectic collection, Lynn! I'm loving Jane Ryan’s wooden beating heart piece, and Rachel Grant's first canvas is stunning. The Doris n Doris papier-mâché pieces are delightful, and so are the ceramic mug and jug. I bet there's something to look at in every corner of your home! xxx
