Super cute hand-thrown porcelain vessel accented with a pebble inspired surface design in white. The pebble design is comprised of individually applied slip dots that are slightly raised above the surface. This gives the exterior a nice, tactile quality and interesting visual texture. The exterior of the vessel is unglazed, while the interior is covered in purple for a nice pop of color. This little guy would make a nice addition to any display and pairs easily with other pieces – especially other Sweet Peas!

The Hook by Hole in my Pocket
A beautiful printed illustration of a bear fight from an original watercolour of a scene from a short story. This fight is not as it seems though, the fighter and the bear are in cahoots. The bear arrives in a village, causes a lot of trouble and then a few days later the fighter arrives. He offers to save the village in exchange for a large bag of silver and then he and the bear stage a mock fight at the end of which the bear is beaten and runs out of the village into the woods. The fighter later joins him and the two share out the silver. This fool proof plan serves them very well for many months until something quite unplanned happens… Unframed and unmounted 15cm x 20cm (5.9" x 7") digital archival art print on Somerset Velvet 330gsm paper. Signed edtion of 100.

Incoming Tide Lino Print by linocutgirl
Original, limited edition, lino print, The Incoming Tide at Dunstanburgh Castle, Northumberland, England. This is a wild place on the North Sea coast where the sea at high tide rushes to meet the ancient ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle. Linocutgirl has captured the wildness of the sea and the mystery of the ruins at this beautiful place. The print is made using the reduction technique which works by cutting away at the lino for each layer of colour. The result is that the print cannot be reproduced after the original run of 6 prints. The print is completely handmade using a hand burnishing technique.
