PROUD: Today, I have never felt so proud to be Bri

PROUD: Today, I have never felt so proud to be British. It has been a beautiful day to send the Duke of Edinburgh on his way. The second photograph is of a swan who greeted me whilst walking along the river this morning. We had a wonderful chat about the world and she assured me that today was going to be a lovely day. And it has been. Fair Winds and Following Seas Your Royal Highness.

MY STYLE: While I scroll through the feeds of glo

MY STYLE: While I scroll through the feeds of global designers, pour over interior magazines and follow a gazillion incredible artists - there is one common theme which weaves its magical way over everyone’s style - except mine. That is colour. Colours and layered patterns which bring zest and excitement to the table. Here’s the thing. My style just doesn’t work like that and sometimes it worries me that people just ‘don’t get’ my palette and think I’m dull. I see colour and I love it but somehow my brain and work just don’t compute bright oranges, greens and blues all mixed together with swirls, stripes and harlequin diamonds. Colour seems to worry me somehow. I worry that it doesn’t match, that I’ll tire of it, that I’ve made an expensive mistake (I have made many), people will judge my wrong decisions - cushions and curtains I have to live with for the next 30 years and now regret. Actually, I am happy with my muted style. Natural, calm, uncomplicated, comforting, understated yet exuding a feeling of sophistication. That is my art, the way I chose my papers, colours and design. My sculptures would fit beautifully in anyone of these beautiful design schemes - which appeal to my senses - photos I have found on Pinterest. This is me - this is my world. Am I alone?

GRAND PANGOLIN: This piece has now found its way

GRAND PANGOLIN: This piece has now found its way to @hollandridgegroup HQ in Oxfordshire. I was so honoured that it was hung above the fire place in the main drawing room. Looks far more super there than at the top of my stairs! It’s 100cm in diameter- I have no idea how many paper scales I cut and placed by hand, but am sure it’s around the thousand mark. It’s a very thought provoking piece, narrating an important story of our beloved pangolin survival.

COMPLETE & STYLED: Wild Africa is complete and wai

COMPLETE & STYLED: Wild Africa is complete and waiting for the frame. I love this piece - the colours, the subject and my love of Africa. I like my viewers to stop and look rather than to walk by and glance. Wild Africa will eventually be hung above 3 Bloomberg trading screens in a gentleman’s study. @lucymarshinteriors opted for calm colours so not to ‘fight’ with the multicolours of her clients trading screens. If this were above my desk - I wouldn’t get much work done, I’d be in a permanent day dream.

ON THE HOME RUN: with this piece commissioned by @

ON THE HOME RUN: with this piece commissioned by @lucymarshinteriors. During her visit today we discussed its eventual placement, the colour and design concept within the study (where it will hang) and how we are going to maximise its impact. I have one more day to work on this - adding the most important layer which will bring the whole story together. A fairytale of Africa, and really wishing I could be there right now.
