Forest drawings 2




I've spent a lovely Christmas break at my Nans, who lives in the forest. I felt so inspired by the colours the damp weather has created. Here is a little taster for you to enjoy. The little things in life can be so easily missed, it's sometimes nice to remember them.

Frank

One main reason for us spending the weekend in Whitstable (see previous post!), is this little design shop called Frank.  It is somewhere I've been wanting to visit for such a long time, and now I have I feel complete!  Frank sells the best of British graphic arts, design and craft. Take a look at their gorgeous website www.frankworks.eu.  I treated myself to some lovely knitted socks and a notebook...very happy xx
Frank sells lots of lovely prints by British Artists, all affordable definitely worth a look.

Weekend to Whitstable

We had a lovely relaxing weekend in Whitstable.  We managed to avoid the rain and basked in Autumn sushine, eating fish and chips, and taking long walks.  Here's a bit of Whitstable colour inspiration for you xx
