Artist Sri captures hearts with her feminine touch

PJ's are currently loving the work by London based Artist Sri Mckinnon who's current exhibition 'Archiapelgo'illustrates the nostalgia she has for the lush and tropical landscapes she experienced as a child growing up in South East Asia.

Just to let you know it's shit hot!!!!!

Her work speaks to you like a lightly floating dream you don't want to wake up from, depicting ethereal scenes fused with a gentle surrealist and mystic qualities where nature and femininity dominate her work .

If you haven't had time to peak her exhibition there's still time, it's running till the 13th September at the Eastpak Shop in Carnaby Street.

Lots of Love

I love a man with Tats and lego!

There are two things which have always really puzzled and eluded me since I was a child 1) Whether I would ever swallow the bullet and get a tatoo (not sure about how i feel about being 60 saggy and illustrated) 2) How I could use lego men to live out my dreams and create mass havoc in a lego brick world of destruction.

Whilst I am still unable to decide what to do about these things The ads were done by GREY are a step closer than I am to finding the answers.
