Quote of the week…
A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference.

Inspiring artist of the week: Louise Bourgeois
Louise Joséphine Bourgeois (1911 – 2010) was a French-American artist. Although she is best known for her large-scale sculpture and installation art, Bourgeois was also a prolific painter and printmaker. She explored a variety of themes over the course of her long career including domesticity and the family, sexuality and the body, as well as death and the unconscious.These themes connect to events from her childhood which she considered to be a therapeutic process. Although Bourgeois exhibited with the abstract expressionists and her work has a lot in common with Surrealism and feminist art, she was not formally affiliated with a particular artistic movement.




Hand lettering Inspiration of the week: Jean Cocteau
Jean Maurice Eugène Clément Cocteau (1889 – 1963) was a French poet, playwright, novelist, designer, film director, visual artist and critic. He was one of the foremost avant-garde artists of the 20th-century and hugely influential on the surrealist and Dadaist movements, among others. The National Observer suggested that “of the artistic generation whose daring gave birth to Twentieth Century Art, Cocteau came closest to being a Renaissance man”.
