The Londonereas Series




I came across these beautiful hand-printed silkscreen prints of original villages around the London area showing their shops & highstreet by illustrator VicLee. I really want the Clifton Road print as that's my neck of the woods.

It's finally here: My Etsy Shop

It's been a long winding road... with computer break downs & an almost full time job, I thought I'll never see the day but here it is... My brand new sparkling Etsy shop with my series of "My Cuppa" mugs. It's tiny at the moment but I have loads of ideas & plans for it, so hopefully in the next few weeks I'll have lots more stuff on it. So keep checking.

Project J&P

Last year around this time Mr.S & I were eagerly anticipating for our trip to New Zealand to visit Mr.S's family. And were especially looking forward to seeing our 8 year old nephew Joshua who we hadn't seen since he was 2. As a kid I was never allowed to touch my dad's camera and I as I guessed it, it was the same for J too. As I'm obsessed with photography, I decided that it was high time J had his own camera too. So for Christmas he got one from Santa.
All throughout our trip we went for many walks and took loads of pictures. I've been really missing our creative photography outing and decided to start Project J&P as a way to mutually inspiring each other. Each week I'll upload one picture each, of a topic decided before hand. I can wait to see what we comes up with? Hopefully both he and I will have loads of fun doing this.

How many cameras are too many?



Mr. S is usually very sweet and doesn't really say anything about my camera obsession but every now and then he'll frown about it if the fridge is filling up with all my different films and there's no place to keep food! But after looking at the amazing collection of cameras by photographer & camera collector Romuald Swieconek (more than 500 & counting) I don't feel as guilty of my humble number of 8. Check out his flickr photostream & camera collections here.
