my personal mantra...

Solar Power

                            Using the power of Sunlight to create the above images.

Turkish Delight

 

Some textiles I bought from a Bazaar in Istanbul. I can plan to incorporate them in my latest design work.

European Adventure

5 Countries, 4.5 weeks, 6 flights, 2 ferries, numerous bus journeys, 1 sunrise, countless sunsets, endless inspiration...

                    First stop Istanbul - a city full of energy, people, mosques and minarets.

 

 

  

 

              An abundance of colour and pattern found in everything from textiles to spices

shadows

Photograph by Mario Sorrenti, featured in French Vogue, April 2013. I love the striking shadows against the softness of the colour across the face. It reminds me of the colourings of a tropical fish or the ripples of water.

Not only are do they design and manufacture beautiful clothing and accessories but they produce them at affordable prices due to their consumer knowledge and know how when it comes to marketing and selling a product. No stores. Online only. This reduces costs and appeals to an international market. Take a look at https://www.everlane.com/
