Some paintings just etch themselves into your memory. I’ve revisited this pair in a proposal for a client and nearly two years after I first saw them I a) can’t believe how beautiful they still are to me and b) I see and experience them entirely differently from how I did the first time around. A very strange but lovely thing indeed.

These gorgeous Jarays would look beautiful in an elegant sitting room somewhere in Chelsea. Or Kensington. Or Mayfair. Even Wandsworth. :) (note added: Especially Chiswick!) .

I’ve met Turner Prize winning artists, had a selfie with Boris Johnson (in the days when I had a huge crush on him), another with John Major (still have a crush on him - the woman who called me The Tory Wife Number Two wasn’t wrong 😂), shared a first class cabin with David Walliams and I’ve even flirted with Richard Branson twice (which blonde hasn’t I hear you ask) but I don’t recall any of those meetings being half as exciting as meeting once of our very own National Treasures - Esme from The Great British Sewing Bee. I didn’t have the heart to tell her that my kids would find this very very funny - we were watching it only last week and they told me I was turning into Esme and that I was going to end up looking exactly like her in a few years time! Now I have scrutinised the likenesses I concur that they might be right! Scarf. Tick. Cross body bag. Tick. Bob. Tick. Likes a print. Tick. Likes a big ring. Tick. Just cross I left my red lippie at home last night. Thanks to the @landmarkartfairs for inviting me to their interesting Textile Fair ahead of their artist art fair in May at which I will be doing a couple of talks about buying and displaying art in your home. .

This is what I do. I find beautiful art and place it in my clients homes. This work cost my client the same as if she had gone to the gallery directly so she gets the benefit of 15 years art world experience and interior art placement for free. If you want to have the ultimate safety net give me a call - we’ll probably rehang and reposition a few things around the house too 😊. Thank you Lauren for this beautiful image. Painting sourced from my other business @surfaceica.

Any of my clients lucky enough to have bought a Fran Mora work now have more than one reason to smile when they look at the work. Needless to say I have booked a studio visit in following my week @thebodycampibiza this April. Would anyone like to carry my bags?! Have I said before that I love my job? I love my job. 😂😂🤣🤣

This week has been a week of very amazing universe karma. I obviously can’t talk about the specifics or it ruins the flow but it’s been joyous to be able help a few people and it’s been amazing to unexpectedly receive some gifts of the universe back. This story on this repost touched me. We can all do so much good if we share some love without expecting anything back. What will you do tomorrow to do your bit? .

Best mail ever. A great side to Instagram after seeing my previous posts, a conversation stuck up, then wonderful and kind artists @hipkissart sent me a collection of stag-beetles mandibles that had been found on walks. Thank you, thank you what inspirational pleasure you have sent me today. Now the question is, do I spend this afternoon pairing them up. Look at the size of some of these beasts!

Ok ok ok. This had to be done. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 A number of people have pointed out that I seem to be developing an alter ego closely based around Zandra Rhodes and when I just thought it was the pink hair I wasn’t so sure. Turns out it’s much closer to the truth - we share the same taste in jewellery and we also both like to wear blue nail varnish. Uncanny in many ways. Slightly disturbing too but actually also actually very funny!!!! Now, where are my red boots? 😂

Absolutely gorgeous to visit this home that’s been so effortlessly packed with colour and interesting artwork. Thanks to the talented @annamproctor and @proctor_and_shaw for opening up your home to us with @decorcafenet . I’ve been toying with painting the bottom half of my sitting room wall this colour and I am now tempted to go the whole hog! 😎

Everything about this is beautiful to me. Colour. Composition. The thickening of the model’s waist (she must be 45). The slight pinking of her thighs (she must be 45). The slight loss of definition of the upper arm (she must be 45). The fact that she looks totally happy and relaxed and nonchalant in her body. She must be 45. Or 50. She’s not 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 or 40 that’s for sure. God it’s a relief to be over all that. .

International women’s day. How better to celebrate it with this gorgeous watercolour titled ‘Fuck Baking’. I say here’s to ‘fuck baking, tidying, fuck changing the empty loo rolls, emptying the bins, cleaning, wiping down the sides, doing the washing, hanging the washing, folding the washing, ironing the washing, putting away the washing, doing the shopping, cooking the food, organising the school trips, costumes, poetry week, overseeing the practising of musical instruments, Kumon, definitely FUCK Kumon, oh the list of fucks does go on’. Yeah fuck being a woman quite a lot of the time. .

I just LOVE working with creatives! Gives me such a buzz.
So for those who don’t follow my @atnumber16 (apologies for doubling up for those who do), just wanted to share an exciting day we had yesterday with @thebrand_stylist in the house shooting her next online courses together with @katiespicerphotography and @hdmoments yesterday.
Such an inspiring day!

Hanging large art in a small room creates a feeling of intimacy and enveloping. This lucky client has leapt in and snared two absolutely beautiful Rebecca Morris works to do just that. The room which has little natural light and no windows now feels like it’s opening onto these beautiful skies - it feels glorious and I am a bit jealous. This client has a beautiful Farrow and Ball palette on her walls and none of us could believe just how special Rebecca’s work looked on them. I am showing Rebecca’s work this week with my business partner @surfaceica. It’s Rebecca’s first show in London and we are delighted to introduce her to our clients. If you would like a ticket to the affordable art fair please email us on info@surfaceica.com. .

Is this the most beautiful hospital corridor you have ever seen? I’ve just been reading about this clever, beautiful and sensitive 2000 tile installation in @craftsmagazine. In consultation with the patients (this is a mental health hospital) the artist responded to the need for bright uplifting palette as well as the need for the work to be tactile. I think it looks joyous. Art for people who need it the most. Well done Frances Priest. I think you should be very very proud of your work. .

Last night a group of us celebrated the sisterhood and all its glorious loveliness. I wanted to say thank you to them (plus a few others who couldn’t be with us) for having all done their bit to get me through the last few interesting years. It’s time though to let that shit all go. And we did, with a few tears, a few jokes and quite a few laughs. Thanks girls. Let your shit go and enjoy the weekend with your loved ones. We’ve all got them. They might not be the ones you started out with, or the ones you thought you’d have, but let’s all celebrate the ones we do. .

Today I am going to carve out some time to drink tea from a hand thrown mug and sit with the sun on my face. It’s been a very busy few days presenting works to clients costing thousands of pounds and it makes me fizzy - I need grounding. 🙏 Please do read the repost below. If you still have shop bought mugs reading this will get you a step closer to buying hand thrown ones .

After 6 months of this pale grey glaze not working we managed to get it firing properly again this week.
We had to investigate the glaze recipe step by step to figure out what had gone wrong. In the end there were two different factors. One of our kilns was over-firing a little and the glaze base recipe needed adjusting. We’ve increased the proportion of potash feldspar and lowered the clay content by only 1.5% but it’s made the world of difference to how much melts on to the pot.
I’d forgotten how much I loved this surface and how it breaks to a deeper grey around the rim and edges.
All is forgiven. .

I love my job. This week while 2/3 of the kids have been away I’ve become an expert on Jonas Wood works on paper. With the presentation next week to client now is the time for anyone to come forward with any prints they might like to sell. I’m looking for the landscape pots from 2014 in particular. .
