Renli Su Girl Weinan Pan
Weinan Pan This month we interview jewellery designer Weinan Pan at her home studio in Hampstead London. Weinan’s home is an eclectic mix of hanging plants, rope swings and artefacts picked up from travels. It’s as if we have been transported out of London to a place far far away, a tranquil place for her to unwind, and a home of dreams and adventure for her children.

Renli Su Girl Wei Wei
Faye Wei Wei As summer comes to an end, we are lucky enough to visit British-Chinese painter Faye Wei Wei in her magnificent home-studio in south London. Faye is often a muse of ours, her transcendent large-scale paintings ooze references to symbolism, mythology, and romance. Like Renli, Faye’s love story with the past is prominent within her work.

A converted Edwardian Baroque style library which hosts 40 artist studios and has done for the past 28 years. A vast stripped back orate space, perfect for Eleanor’s evocative paintings which depict light flooded, decadent and dream like spaces. The depth of Eleanor’s paintings is one of a kind, her creations are reminiscent of something you would find in a museum, they have an aged familiarity.... Read more...
Eleanor Ward-Thomson
Eleanor Ward-Thompson Earlier this year we visited artist Eleanor at her exceptionally well put together home. Originating from a background in fashion, Ellie now works between the two worlds. She is impeccably well dressed, but it is her Art work that has caught our eve. Merging the lines between her love of surrealism and the natural world, her paintings are of organic otherworldly forms. The combination of her natural forms against the surrealist checkerboard structures enables them to come alive. Ellies home is very much a reflection of her work,... Read more...
Kirico
Kirico Ueda We were immediately fascinated by artist Kirico Ueda, whose work explores theatre, mythology, and folklore within mediums of photography and ceramics. Her small delicately crafted sculptures breathe life through their quirky stances and antique referenced colour pallets. With her large-scale print-like photographs dominating the room. Kirico's work explores symbolism and childhood memories through mythology, folklore, and plays. Her love of storytelling and allegory’s present in the personalities of the characters she creates. The combination of mediums creates a dreamy setting, a nostalgic mix of old and newfound fascinations... Read more...
Melissa Kime
Melissa Kime As winter comes to an end, we are delighted to introduce to you one of our favourite emerging artists, Melissa Kime. Melissa's work features themes of womanhood, religion, nature, and folklore (yes, very Renli Su I know). Her bewitching figures hold distorted proportions, with some figure's nude and many shown in sheer white airy dresses. So as you can imagine, we were delighted when she contacted us requesting to visit our showroom in search of a dress for her big day. Later we interviewed Melissa about her art... Read more...
