Cleopatra in my kitchen
Drawing of The Banquet of Cleopatra, as a custom kitchen splashback. Walls are like a blank canvas to Soula. Their location, size, position, proportion, surface and accessibility govern the medium and subject of the artwork. When Soula and Theo were renovating their warehouse, time came to address the kitchen splashback. The kitchen is the place for good conversation, great food and drink. What could stimulate the space better than a drawing of Tiepolo’s [...]
Delightful, Gasworks Arts Park exhibition 2008 opening
The press release below explains this show perfectly. I do have to add a huge thanks however to three dearest people, Theo, Lynn Savery and Michelle Caithness. I could not have produced these works without Theo’s support (and that still goes for most things I do today!). Darling Lyno the chance I got to paint and draw you is icing on the cake and that cake is our beautiful friendship, the world needs [...]

As if we were going to pass up the opportunity to hand Leo Burnett's CEO, Todd Sampson, our business card. After all we're always curious to see what people do with it... The great Todd Sampson did what most people do...
Do you believe in writing with pen and paper?
My Moleskine Lifelong Friends, part of ecriture infinie, by Soula Well I can't put the Infinite Writing information better myself. All I'm going to do is let you all know that I've been included in this fabulous project and you can be too. Or you can simply enjoy reading about it and learn where writing stands today. What now? Is handwriting still necessary?...
Notcot.org
I couldn't possibly think of a better way to describe what Notcot does so I'm not going to even try (and I'm assuming there aren't many readers who don't know about this brilliant, creative world already) but... just in case you haven't had the experience you simply MUST feel the impact of this site. The official description off the Notcot website is:"NOTCOT is a visual filtration of ideas + aesthetics + amusements". Thrilling! [...]
