Home is where the ART is - Part Two - Art in many forms


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.

Link to Karen’s blog with photos of her fab work

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
