I LOVE these Rob Ryan silkscreen prints (one of Katrin’s many hidden gems in the art world)… all made by hand from original ink drawings by a little team of artists all the way across the pond in London… Rob is known for his paper cutout pieces, laser cutting techniques and screen prints.  How beautifully divine and precise!

What a beautiful little shopfront… love the blast of turquoise

Now this, I flat out love.  Who knew that Rob Ryan collaborated with uber unique jewelery designer Tatty Divine?!?  For those who aren’t in the know, Katrin’s boutique has been known to carry their individual and rare necklaces… T-Rex dinosaurs, swinging acrobats… with Tatty anything can inspire a wearable piece of art!

Alongside his extensive prints, Rob has done some amazing commissioned work – my personal favorite being the cover of British Elle Magazine for London fashion week!  You see, lifestyle, art, fashion… it’s all relative and interconnected…. each one influencing the next.

Visit his shop and take a look around!
