A real Pick Me Up

Last night I joined some ex-colleagues from Pi Global to take a look at the design fair, Pick Me Up, at Somerset House. It was a fantastic evening and featured an array of talent from veteran designer Anthony Burrill and his open studio, to lettering artist, Jessica Hische bringing the art of hand-lettering into the 21st century.

Another designer who caught my eye included Brighton-based Zara Wood and her beautifully eccentric depictions of children.

Here's some other work I longed to take home with me ...

 

  

Anthony Burrill's studio was a hive of activity as were many others around the exhibition, Print Club London and The Puck Collective to name just a couple.

The evening was set to live music and drawing by Heavy Pencil and it was just a shame everyone got kicked out at 9pm. We could have stayed much longer!
