Double Parlour

The mavericks, two polymer clay sculptures

Shonin No. 8, a polymer clay sculpture

Halloween may be over, but there’s still goodies at Double Parlour that wouldn’t seem out of place at all! The shop is a collaboration between Ernie and Cassandra Velasc, who clearly loves mixing mediums to create sculptures, paintings, drawings and prints.

Random trivia: My dad’s birthday falls on Halloween too, hence the missing post! 🙂

Love these delicate paper cuttings by Helen Musselwhite, an artist based at the North West of UK.

Each piece combines the hand cutting, folding and scoring of a wide range of papers and card that are further worked on to create patterned and textured surfaces. They are then used to build scenes in box frames which are often complex and consist of many layers.

She also has an Etsy shop too!

Hephalumps

Did you see Tiel of TskTsk’s lovely retro-inspired limited edition collection of new prints? They are magnificent, and they are only available in editions of 10 each. My personal favourite? This party hephalump.
