So we have these gorgeous phone cases instigated by my daughter Elle, who has been on the case of my social media and is taking over my marketing. Means I'll get more cutting time, YEY!  but also I get pics put up of me in my pyjamas! Thanks El  My artwork printed on phone cases. We've partnered with a print on demand company so the cases come out directly to you from them. After our initial hiccup all seems to be working well. So thank you so much to all our 'early adopters' who were very patient while we sorted...

First print of 2024 - St Ives Bay I'm loving the tranquility of this one. I'm going away in March to spend 3 weeks dancing Tango in Buenos Aires. It's my other passion so... I'e been working double time, days and nights to make sure I've started 2024 with some lovely big prints. Here's the first Photo inspiration - Looking across the wet sands of Porth Kidney towards Porthminster and St Ives.    My print St Ives Bay -  It's a lovely calming early summer evening, light and reflections glow across the beach. Summer days and sand between your toes....
