Dusty rose pink 19th Century paperback books

Appley Hoare Antiques is one of my favourite places on the web. I love virtually everything in this shop, it's where I go to dream and seek inspiration, although it's way out of my league financially. Appley and Zoe sell some wonderful small items and accessories, and I often pop in to see if there's anything of interest. Look what I found yesterday - three beautiful framed prints from an old Paris art supplies catalogue circa 1900... if only...

I love collections, as you know. If you're interested, artist/illustrator Lisa Congdon has started an excellent 365 project over here. She will be presenting a photo, a drawing or a painting of a real or an imaginary collection every day this year, starting with these vintage rubbers

I'll definitely be following, what about you?

Little Pink Houses

I love Lisa Congdon's art. I love her sense of colour and composition. I think that what I find the most inspiring about her work is that she is a self-taught multimedia artist and illustrator. I also like collections of things and so does Lisa. No wonder then that I have fallen in love with her work for the Little Pink Houses show at the Curiosity Shoppe, conceived in collaboration with another great San Francisco-based artist and friend Mati McDonough. The show runs until 31 September.
