New T-shirt campaign

New T-shirt campaigns!

After many many requests I have relaunched ‘All the Doggos’ and ‘The Sighthounds’ t-shirts, in new ink and t-shirt colours options! I have the All The Doggos in pink and long sleeved and The Sighthounds in white - they are the t-shirts that I reach for as they are so comfy and wash really well.

How it works

Each T-shirt is printed with Print Social, a great business where any artist can create a design and have it printed. There are 23 days for this campaign and they only print what people order which is brilliant. I don’t need to worry about holding or ordering too much stock and I know that the people investing in this t-shirt will treasure it for a long time. The best thing is you have 23 days to decide and once the campaign reaches 5 sales it will definitely go to print! It’s like having an exclusive piece of art you can wear! The campaigns end 8th July at 9pm!

There are 2 designs available (Doggos and Sighthounds) and 3 ink colours to chose from (black, pink and white) available on a variety of colours! See all available designs here.

I chose to have the organic cotton T-shirt, a more environmentally friendly option compared to normal cotton and other fabrics. There are lot more colour options available including new ink options! (I LOVE the pink on cotton pink and caribbean blue and I can’t wait to chose these!)

#Albertsweek

If you follow me over on instagram you’ll likely have seen my monthly comics about my retired racing greyhound Albert. They started as weekly comics in the 2020 lockdowns (hence #albertsweek!) and now they are back every month.

They focus on the quirks of having a dog, the weird little things that make Albert special and hopefully they are enlightening to what it’s like having a greyhound who had a life before he came to us.

This week is about Albert’s love of sniffing EVERYTHING but particularly grass. We could be there hours as he sniffs the same patch and whilst it can be annoying if we’re trying to get somewhere in a rush it makes me so happy that he does it. When we first got him he was never fully relaxed enough to sniff - he would be too distracted and scared by everything around him. It took him almost a year to sniff to the extreme he does now and it’s another reminder of how far he’s come in 2 years.

Celebrating Outdoor Swimming

Combining two of my favourite activities- swimming and screen printing. My latest screen print offerings are a celebration of swimming.

I’ve spent most of my life living by the coast and after moving to London 8 years ago I really missed the sea. I took up swimming again when I was living in Greenwich which rekindled my love of the water. There’s something restorative about moving in water. I hadn’t appreciated how important swimming was to me until lockdown when the pools closed and my one of my forms of escapism was taken away. 

I was drawn to swimming outdoors last year starting off in Brockwell lido and trying the ponds at Hampstead Heath. Since moving to Crystal Palace I am now a regular at Beckenham Place lake (yes I am planning to go through winter… wish me luck!) Swimming in lakes, rivers and the sea this year has been incredible. Every time I get into that cold body of water with the ducks and ducklings it resets me and I feel reinvigorated when I get out. It’s just me floating in the water and I created this series of prints to try and capture these little feelings  and moments.

A few months ago I was feeling unmotivated and took the day off to sketch just for fun. I picked up two random pens and sat on the sofa in front of a film. The water in the final prints are exactly the shape of the sketches I made that day, little irregular puddle shapes that I would usually try to perfect but I kept them the way they were. I printed at Sonsoles Studio in Peckham, I highly recommend this printing studio if you want to get into screen printing, they are so helpful and friendly.

Each print is signed and numbered, a limited edition of 20.

There are 3 designs; Sea Celebration, The Dip and Reset. Each design is a limited edition of 20 and I have signed and number each of them. They are A4 size (210 x 297 mm) printed on Somerset Textured paper and packaged with recycled backing board and packaged in a recyclable glassine envelope. 

The Sighthounds T-shirt!

I am very excited (and nervous) to launch my first T-shirt design with Print Social !

Let me introduce you to ‘The Sighthounds’ tee! Full of your favourite long limbed doggos from Salukis to Italian Greyhounds. Printed in London on organic cotton and available in a variety of sizes.

I chose to have the organic cotton T-shirt, a more environmentally friendly option compared to normal cotton and other fabrics. The front has a small greyhound roaching (based on my beloved dog Albert) and the reverse has a beautiful mix of sighthounds including Whippets and lurchers.

How it works

It will be printed with Print Social, a great business where any artist can create a design and have it printed. There are 30 days for this campaign and they only print what people order which is brilliant. I don’t need to worry about holding or ordering too much stock and I know that the people investing in this t-shirt will treasure it for a long time.

The best thing is you have 30 days to decide and once the campaign reaches 5 sales it will definitely go to print! It’s like having an exclusive piece of art you can wear!

What a handsome dog!

Whenever I take Albert for a walk and pass someone who says “what a handsome dog!” or “That dog is beautiful” I can’t help but feel so proud!

We’ve been really working on getting his weight up and giving him a good diet which suddenly seems to have taken effect. His coat is healthier and his special dry skin baths have helped with his (terrible) dandruff. Although he has always been a handsome boy the weight gain and shiny coat mean that he is looking extra regal.

He still has baldy thighs, I’ve been adding oats to his breakfast which some greyhound owners have claimed help. There’s a slight fuzz growing back but I’m not holding out much hope for total regrowth, it doesn’t seem to bother him and as long as he is happy that’s the main thing.
