Fantasy Train Posters

I love vintage railway posters and thought it would be fun to create some which were based on locations you couldn't easily get to by normal transport. Imagine how great that would be! Which fantasy location would you go to?

Pink Flowers in St Ives



Emma Jeffryes is one of my favourite Cornish artists. Whenever I get the chance I visit the New Craftsman Gallery in Cornwall so that I can stand and gaze at her happy paintings. One day I hope to be able to own an original. For now I am making do with the card version.  What kind of art makes your heart skip? xx

On days like this


when I've had a long day in the office, all I want to do is go to the beach and paddle in the sea. Maybe eat some chips and have an ice-cream. Lie back on the hot sand and soak up the last rays of sun. Sally Anderson captures this perfectly in her art work - like this card for a  Summer Saturday.

I love art but...

at the moment I can't afford to own any of the art I love. Instead I make do by visiting as many art galleries as possible and purchasing the cards of the art I admire. Like this studious chap - Hare Professor by Sonia Rollo. I found this in a lovely art gallery in Bath (I can't remember which one, sorry). It's beautifully done, isn't it?
