My Etsy Journey Part 2: A Valentine special Art print of London's sweetheart - Amy Winehouse.

It's Valentines. It's a busy time on Etsy with everyone tagging 'Valentines gifts' or 'Gifts for her'. Jewellery, clothes, flowers, cupcakes, heart shaped cards...the whole shebang. 
I'm embracing Valentines in my own way, with my Valentine. My wonderful husband of six years. He is a brilliant writer and illustrator, and the guy who kicked my butt and pushed me to get on to Etsy. 

We made this print of Amy- the sweetheart of London. 



Those eyes....

Amy Winehouse. The Camden sweetheart we all fell in love with. Amy's voice continues to sing about love, heartbreak and such bitter sweet joys. Forever remembered.

So we watched the Amy documentary together the other day, it was a beautiful candid insight into her life. The swift rise to fame, and how it all began to unravel towards the end. Sad, sweet and scary unpredictable. Complicated, yet tender, her struggles around family, fame and addiction. It captures the very heart of what she was about, a true musical genius.

Limited edition Giclee Prints of Amy Winehouse 'Tears die on their own' now available on Eye for London Prints on Etsy

My Etsy Journey Part 1: Launching Eye For London Prints

Unusual graphic Art Print and Posters of London

After two whole years in London (to the day), I still find myself falling in love with the city a little more everyday. Kicking off year three, I have launched my own Print Shop on Etsy. This personal project features graphic illustrations through stories in architecture design and pop culture, exploring the often overlooked yet interesting facets that lend character to the city of London. From Bowie and Brutalism, to the books people are reading on the tube. This is London through my eyes.
