Custom Commissioned Miniature Eye Portrait by Amy Abshier Reyes


"I've been working on a series of miniature eye portraits, because I love painting eyes, mostly - but also because they look really cool in a group. And I love the old idea of painting a loved-one's eye in miniature - although those are traditionally smaller and usually set in jewelry," Amy Abshier Reyes.

This is your chance to commission your own miniature eye painting. If you've ever entertained the idea of having a custom portrait made, here's your opportunity. Amy will paint your custom portrait in oils on 2"x2" Strathmore illustration board and it will be signed on the front and also signed, dated, and titled on the back. Doesn't it look fantastic framed? Beautiful!

0 To Naked by The Joy Of Ex Foundation


Set of four A6 postcards printed on lovely thick board. These also make fantastic little mini posters, but be careful who you show them to! Sally Beerworth opened the J.O.E. Foundation in May 2011. Sally doesn’t really consider herself an overly nice person, but when her own divorce almost cost her her smile, she started writing a funny novel to make herself giggle. And whilst writing the book she decided to start The Foundation. She wasn't exactly sure exactly how she could possibly help anyone. So as a writer, she started a little Facebook group to help people to smile more… cos sometimes in life there is nothing else you can do. Then people started asking her for merchandise and books featuring all her silly quotes. She had some printed, and people from all around the world started buying them. Sally now puts aside a chunk of the money she earns, to try and help people when they get stuck going through a rough break up.

Himmeli No. 5 Modern Mobile by AMradio


Styled after a Finnish tradition, this sculptural himmeli mobile is delicate in its design but carries a strong geometric pattern. A captivating piece, which once coaxed, turns with the slightest of breeze. A lovely minimalist addition to any space. Intricately handcrafted with black plastic straw and cotton string, the sections are joined together and turn as one complete piece. 12 x 12 x 19 inches. Beautiful!

I love this piece by Catherine Mellinger. A beautiful one off, mixed media work of art. Collage, ink and watercolour on arches watercolour paper. The paper is 9 3/4" x 11" and has been left with a raw edge. Punctured for pin mounting onto your wall. Fantastic!
