CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

Posted by J MONEY

Fancy getting someone something a little different to what the high street has to offer? Some original artwork perhaps? Our friends at the Lorden Art Factory have got their blog up and running and it features some beautiful hand drawings for sale. Have a look and if there’s something you like, purchases can be made directly via the website. Make sure you scroll through all the pages so as not to miss something.

The LAF boys will be out in force on Thursday evening (17/12/09) at the Number 22 store on Carnaby Street, London. Asked to come up with an idea for a window display, they went one better and created their own mini studio  in the corner of the shop. The window was filled with LAF paintings and illustrations. If a passer by liked what they saw they were entitled to take a canvas away on the condition that they replaced the work with a piece of their own.

The result is a constantly evolving display encouraging creativity. Very refreshing amongst all the mannequins out there… From 6pm the store will be open late for business, beers and hopefully some mince pies. Get down there and grab some art!

Store address: 22 Carnaby Street, London, W1F 7
