Love this image from a Jean Charles de Casteljabac collection showcasing art with fashion – fun website too: JC de Casteljabac It’s nice to relax in the nostalgia and fun of the personal exuberance embodied in this look … a refreshing contrast to the rising tide of Christmas hard sell that is breaking over us […]
MoreI’m feeling all cerebral today – something I could do with more of in my life, I’m sure. Vampire novels: no! Great Thinkers: oh, yes, bring it … If you’d like to tickle some grey matter – yours or, perhaps, as a ‘gift’ to another – you might do worse than peruse the book selections […]

Fashion illustrator antennae twitching, I looked them up. Amidst a fine body of their work, I loved this Youtube […]
MoreOoh, just read that there will be Kara Walker exhibition on at The Camden Arts Centre from 11 October 2013 to 5 January 2014. I will definitely be going to that as have loved her work since seeing it in a huge exhibition at The Whitney in New York almost two decades ago. If you […]
