My favourite artist is...

 ...the one and only Rob Ryan. I first came across his work at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park back in 2009 where he had a special exhibition.


 I instantly fell in love with his amazing paper cuts and beautiful verses.

There were only a few Rob Ryan products around when I first came across his work but now there's lots! There is a lovely range of greetings cards available now so I bought some and framed them in the lounge.

I have a collection of Rob's books too. I often look through them first thing on a morning and find something meaningful and inspiring for the day. 
In 2011 we had a lovely trip to London and went to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition which is an annual event which I absolutely love! Rob had some of work was displayed there too.
I could just admiringly stare at them all day!
We also visited his shop on Colombia Road in London...
...it was a Sunday and the most amazing flower market was there. 
It was so pretty and I can still sniff them now ;-)
Never forget: Everything is going to be OK.
