littlechook in the Schmap Guide


One of my flickr photos was chosen to appear in the London Schmap Guide. It's an online guide and covers loads of cities/countries aswell as London.
It's a picture from the first artichokeltd gallery of Hush's work in Carnaby Street. His work is now selling for big money and he was asked by Banksy to appear in a recent show of street art - the 'Cans Festival' which took over a disused tunnel near Waterloo.
http://www.schmap.com/ Seems like a good idea but I find the site is very very slow to load.
Tonight I am trying to do some work on my neglected etsy shop but finding other design blogs far more interesting.

artichokeltd pop up shop


Went to see artichokeltd's latest pop up shop in Earlham Street (in seven dials) today and managed to buy two Prefab prints. Artichokeltd is run buy Pete Matthews and focuses on street art. His pop up shop features limtied editions signed by the artists. Pete is the pioneer of the £1 print which gave Banksy fans a chance to own a print for you've guessed it £1....
His current collection includes work by Prefab, Remi/Roughe, Seamo, Oliver Harud and Jef Aerosol. His website is http://www.artichokeltd.com/ and the prints are available to buy online.
I've put other pics on flickr including one of Katherine in her new role as 'the baby boss'. She had a blast today and then we went to Wagamama for dinner. Perfect end to the day!
