When these delightful and expressive portraits of dogs by UK artist Sally Muir came on my radar recently I thought, why does she feel so familiar to me? Where have I heard about her before…? Turns out, Sally Muir is one of the original designers of that Princess Diana sweater, when she began knitwear company …
I don’t think any art that I’ve seen lately has resonated as much with me as Madeline Donaghue’s depictions of Motherhood. Of course, being a mom of two small kids myself. The way she captures small moments that we have all experienced – reminding you that yes it can be challenging; but it’s also wonderful, …
It’s funny that I would still call this series Mid Week Distraction because I feel like I have been distracted for at least 2 years. Since 2020 (we all know what happened that year) we were all at home making lots of banana bread and everyone downloaded Tik Tok for the first time – I have …
today it hit 40C in London. the hottest summer on record. possibly the last thing people in the UK are thinking about is weird ice-cream flavours (they want air-conditioning and an end to global warming, possibly). but maybe it will take their mind off things. you can find some weird combos at Anya Hindmarch’s summer …

Are you as obsessed with Stranger Things as I am? Along with the rest of the world..! I felt like Season 4 was so good that it could stand on it’s own – even if you weren’t already familiar with the universe of Hawkins and the Upside Down. Besides the epic brilliance of Kate Bush …
I’ve been a fan of Swedish artist Anna Bjerger for a long time, and saved some images of her work to my computer years and years ago. I recently started going through my old inspiration folders and rediscovered them (when last did you save photos to your computer?!). Anna Bjerger is one of the most …
I came across these images taken by Magnum photographer Bruno Barbey in Portugal, which seem to be part of a series – but were taken over various times as he visited the country (some in the 60s and some in the mid 90s). Most of the scenes are from the medieval village of Obidos and …
