It might not be the fastest, or most stable site in the world – but love is blind. I’m so attached to visual bookmarking site, weheartit.com, that I’ve decided to do a monthly post of things I heart.

So here we are, the inaugural post. Click here to see the artists, designs and skills I most covet these days.

Shoot Shoreditch

Posted by Greta in Photos - 30 July 2009


A group of friends and I recently signed up to Shoot Shoreditch – a photography competition whereby you solve clues, take pretty pictures (the one above being a response to “designers block”), and then agonizingly sit through a screening of everyone’s entry (school-assembly-style) on the squeaky-clean floors of Cargo.

Anyway, most creative wins, and whilst i don’t want to sound bitter… we were definitely robbed. Check out a few of our entries here.

Aaaaand I best give credit where credits due… Other team members were Dave “Dude” Hughes, Rebecca “Cuzzy” Heffernan and James “Apparently Jimbo” Orton.

The talented Mr Hughes

Digital artist and good friend, Dave Hughes, has just published a whole bunch of very cool works on his blog, Parc-log. The pieces are simply beautiful and I don’t think require any further explanation, except to say – with a Les Mis reference to boot, I’m officially his biggest fan. Watch this space (his space, not mine… but mine as well), as there’s destined to be more genius coming from him soon.

Royal Academy of Arts: Kuniyoshi

Posted by Greta in Exhibitions - 6 July 2009



The Japanese master didn’t cease to amaze in a recent show of his works at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. With over 150 prints and original woodblocks to see how they were made, his technical genius, brilliant eye, and storytelling expertise were all clearly evident in his work. The image above was a definite favourite of mine – titled ‘Banner for the Boys festival’.
