Mondrian to the Abstract

SULA Gallery – February 2024

We were delighted to be involved with SULA Gallery’s first exhibition of the year. The gallery was filled with artworks inspired by the work of Piet Mondrian. Marking 80 years since the Dutch artist’s death.

Athene’s love of Mondrian’s work made this a perfect match. We created a new and unique pair of our recycled guitar plectrum waterfalls inspired by the shapes of Mondrian’s paintings. The earrings were then pinned through Athene’s abstracted self portrait painting on canvas. Using bold reds combined with our favourite french greys and spring greens – our own version of Mondrian’s restrained yet all encompassing primary colour palette.

Puffin Parade 2023

Lichen inspired puffin for the Puffin Parade

We were so pleased to be invited back to paint a puffin for the 2023 Puffin Parade, after painting a goat for the Golden Guernsey Goat Trail in 2021. Our goat was called Bejulicully – learn more about her here.

The puffin parade was in aid of Autism Guernsey and the GSPCA. A whole flock of puffins were painted by various businesses and organisations from around the island. All the puffins have been displayed in different locations around Guernsey.

Autism Guernsey invite app users to make a donation, the parade has finished but you can still donate here.

Our sponsor – Island Health, have been great to work with, neatly tying in with my own values around art and colour for mental health. The turquoise is one of their brand colours, perfect for a puffin.

The intricate hand drawn patterns are inspired by lichens –  my reference photos were taken from the puffins’ winter home, Iceland, on a trip in the summer of 2022.
