When was the last time you sobbed when you stood in front of some art? Well for me it was last Thursday when I had the absolute honour to meet @hmorriscafiero on the @tjboulting booth @photolondonfair. Haley has been exploring issues around anti-fat bias as well as issues around body image, bullying and the female form in her work for several years, but it was the recent intense trolling that she encountered on social media that led to this work. Here Morris Cafiero turns the light back on the trollers. She takes her top 25 worst offenders, hunts down images of them and then dresses as them with the one of their many horrendous slogans exhibited shamefully by their side. I sobbed hearing about some of the things Morris Cafiero has been exposed to but I sobbed more with pride as this strong, beautiful, clever woman smacked the ball straight back into the court of these ill, sad and damaged individuals. We will be buying the book. If this isn't a reminder about the importance of kindess, tolerance and respect at all times and in all places then I don't know what is. .

I have a few gaps at my house in the Isle of Wight thanks to the divorce and have been looking for a while for work that shouts 'pick me' for said gaps. Yesterday I found the wonderful work of @elizasouthwood at the really rather lovely @landmarkartfairs and bought this fab cool study that she made for one of her beautiful prints. Eliza was a sports architect who jacked it all in for a more balanced life and lucky for us that she did. I love her palette, strong lines and achingly cool composition. This will look fab in my house down in Yarmouth - I suspect it reminds me of the colour during Gaffers Week. One painting back towards healing the holes. One or two more to go. (Ps if you'd like to come and see me do at talk at the Landmark tomorrow about the Art of Hanging - details in bio)

I was blown away by the quality of work from many of the artists tonight at the @landmarkartfairs in Teddington. I popped in to so I could name drop in my talks I am doing on Saturday (How to Collect Art) and Sunday (Art of Hanging) and found there were so many talented people showing I had to get my notebook out so I could remember everyone's names. I particularly loved meeting Ali Yanya (work pictured here). Taught by Alistair Grant at the Royal College of Art back in the day he was fascinating to meet and his work is something else. Ali also runs printmaking courses - and frankly having looked at his work if I had the remotest talent in this area I'd be signing up like a shot. If you want to come and hear me whittle on - link in bio. .

On the eve of the VIP preview for Photo London it was fab to get this Juno piece up on the wall. It feels kind of apt somehow. I first saw Juno's work way back at the Catlin show (god when was that Justin @jhammondprojects ?!) and it's taken me a while to save up to finally get one. So odd that I picked this piece out of all of them (my counsellor would have a field day) - Joyce (Juno's alter ego) flat out on her back on her bed. Urgh. Ive been there one or two times before. What is she thinking? Looks like she is waiting for something. She has her dressing gown on - is she waiting for a lover? She looks rather reticent to me. She also looks a bit, well to me, resigned - as if whatever is about to happen she doesn't a) want and b) cant stop. How many of us women have been in that position on a bed before. As I look back on my 20s and 30s I realise I felt resigned, trapped, unheard, lonely and lost way more often than I ever allowed myself to acknowledge. These days I find my bed a sanctuary - a place where I do what I want with who I want, when I want - it's no longer a place of loneliness or searching contemplation. I love this work by Juno - to me it encapsulates so much of how it feels to be a woman so often of the time. Thank you Juno for capturing what it feels like to be a woman so sweetly painfully - how you did this at such a young age is beyond me and I look forward to seeing how your portrayal of women changes as you grow older and inevitably change yourself. @annabelwarfield and @elizawarfield keep your towels on girls until you want to take them off and if you ever find yourself feeling like this on a bed somewhere, anywhere - put your clothes back on and go and find someone who loves you to have a cup of tea with. ❤️

When life serves you lemons - make lemonade. The post-divorce-division-of-art is now done and the ex (predictably) took the biggest work leaving me with a gaping hole (or as I prefer to see it 'Opportunity') above my fireplace. So I am delighted to announce a new programme called (also predictably) 'Art Above The Fireplace' in which I invite artists to come over, have a cup of tea, tell me how they are feeling and hang a work in my sitting room. These works are for sale (through me) and hopefully will give said artists a good showcase for their works. The first edition of this series is from Alice Neave. I absolutely love this work - fresh, painterly and well, just dead cool. She popped over with her violinist boyfriend who taught me a thing or twenty about Tchaikovsky and we talked about how much we loved the work of @andrewmcintosh_mackie. It's odd how artists I love, love artists I love. A Sunday afternoon doesn't get much better than this - what a joyous celebratory outcome to a sad and difficult few years.

My client tells me that these paintings that I recently sourced for her bring a massive blob of sunshiny happiness (she didn't actually say that but I know that's what she meant - she said they made her feel 'happy' but she said it with a big smile on her face) to the centre of her house. Hung at the end of her hallway, at the top of her stairs to her basement and at the entrance to the kitchen, means the work provides a happy anchor to the heart of the house. If you would like me to come and advise on finding work for your London home do check out my website - ideas for a space cost £150 and we usually take that off the cost of the work so you get my advice for free. 💛💛💛😎

My first troll?!! But yes she is right. Thanks for the free advertising!!! Only £150 for me to come and tell you how to hang your work. A snip at the price. 😂😂😂😂

I am a big believer that some paintings are destined to belong to one owner and when I was in the gallery sourcing work for a different client this painting popped out of storage. I had just received the brief for this gorgeous Fulham sitting room and instantly knew where this painting had to go. This is an amazing painting painted by Doris Bush Nungarrayi from Papunya and I love to think about how it has made its way across the world to have found its happy place here. This is a grounding spiritual painting and I am delighted it found a new wonderful home.

Interesting day on the tube when the 'MI6-Surveillance-Van' have their airdrop on?!!!! Who needs Line of Duty when you have this in real life? I still haven't got over not being tapped on the shoulder when I was at Oxford - this is the cloest I'm clearly ever going to get. 😬😬😬😬😬😩

Check out my website for my latest blog post 'Fun Art Things To Do - Edition 1' for more info on this gorgeous Art Afternoon Tea @rosewoodlondon created by artisan chef Mark Perkins. Proof that art is never just for your walls! (Although a note to the hotel - I thought the actual art on your walls was disappointing and we could do a lot better if you want to give me a call! 😂) .

The finishing pieces for this client's project. So juicy I kind of feel like I want to pluck them off the wall and eat them! Art should bring joy - I think this is a job done! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

So sad to hear today about the passing of the wonderful Nancy Fouts. We first met years ago and bonded over a shared bottle of wine (might have been two...) and talked about love for about two hours. Then she kindly invited me to her house so Annabel and I came over, hung out and talked about all her art and they played table football with one hell of a team. I fell in love with Nancy both times. She was one in a million. .

I love my job. This client bought a 2 hour visit (costing £150) for me to come to her newly purchased home. We rehung her existing work and filled walls with that where we could, sent some work to charity, identified walls that needed new work and came up with this idea for her kitchen - very much a joint effort. Three gorgeous prints that talk to her beautiful teal tiled kitchen on the other side of room. I've also advised on framing, arranged the hanger and supervised the hang. This is the kind of 360 degree service you get when you employ me. And the devil, with art, is in detail and I am delighted to say that the results speak for themselves. Huge thanks to my client for such a great room and beautiful project. 💚💙💚.

Wandsworth's greatest gift to me -the ability to fake just about everything - what a great marriage I was in, how happy my life was, how perfect my life was, how full of great friends it was (actually that bit was true but I looked in the wrong direction for them for a couple of years), what a great time I was having, what fabulous (darling) holidays I went on. Actually it was all bullshit but even I believed my own hype until the day even I couldn't any more. I was reminded of all that today. One conversation on the side of a pitch brought it all flooding back. Urgh. The real me is considerably quieter and shyer than the fake me ever was and I didn't have the heart to tell said person that what they were telling me was also utterly fake and that they'd heard it from the fakest one of all.

You can say that again. I'm no philosopher but thanks to this beautiful piece by Margaret Meehan I have been having a little think about this story and the more I think about it the more pipped I get. What hope do we have as women when the first story of our human creation sets us up in such poor light. We've been on the back foot ever since. In the story Eve IS framed by God, then labelled as weak willed, prone to temptation, deceitful, seductive and a bit evil while poor old Adam sits back and is the poor helpless hapless VICTIM of Eve's shoddy ways. The more I think about this the more outraged I am we are fed this misogynistic drivel from day one of our education. This story needs a rewrite - its got some great messages and values from which we can all learn but the stereotyping of the genders is deeply unhelpful and frankly outrageous. Thanks to the artist for such wonderful thought provoking work. .

A huge thanks to the wonderful @benedictedrummond for securing the front cover of this months Marie Claire Maison with a shot of my garden room. Not many Brit houses get to feature on the cover of this French title so I am doublé honoré 😊😊😊😊😊. Pal mal pour "une femme au foyer (de Wandsworth) paresseuse" (un devis directement de l'ex lors de la rénovation) Quel con. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Can’t thank the team enough from @thebodycampibiza and the utterly gorgeous gang I’ve met here. Ok I know I’ve got my eyes closed but I think this photo sums up the results. I arrived with a layer of mostly Starbucks cinnamon buns - laid down with some comfort eating during my toxic 2 year divorce. These guys have helped me shed that layer and one or two besides. 5 inches in fact, a whole belt notch and I can see my hip bones again. This is an awesome awesome place for anyone wanting a reset, a tune up or to go away and make some decisions. We’ve hiked, burbeeped, squatted, danced, run, pressed, punched, kicked, downward dogged, breathed, stretched, laughed, cried and eaten plant based food back to health. Thanks again guys. 💪💪💪💪
