Exhibition images: Breathing colours 19-31 May 2015

It was  fabulous afternoon and I was honored to have so many guests for afternoon tea.  I was particularly thrilled to meet some fellow adult adopted persons for the first time.

The catalogue is online here and prints are also now available of my work here.

Gabby Malpas for Armuseli, Spain

I am delighted to be collaborating with the team at Armuseli, Spain on their capsule collection for Spring/Summer 2015.

I spied first photos of a garment featuring my 'Hope' butterfly a week or so ago and below are links to various media pieces after the launch.

I particularly love the youtube video of the team and guests having high tea - that is exactly the sort of scenario I set up for my own gallery openings!

Gabby Malpas: new cushion covers arrived

These just landed this week.  This is the final print run of cushions for the year and these, like everything else I produce, are limited edition.
Each cushion cover is 100% cotton, machine washable and numbered as a limited edition print.  I'd recommend keeping them out of very direct sunlight and outdoors.
The pattern depictions shown here are the front and back of each cushion.

42 of the spanish poppy (dark purple), and hellebore cushion covers were made and 45 of the poppy and acid begonias cushion covers (with purple piping).

These are in my online store at www.gabbymalpas.com, and will be coming soon to Platform72 and Breathing Colours Gallery soon...

There are a fabulous selection of subtropical plants at this fair - I'm looking to stock up on bromeliads and orchids.

New pictures

Him indoors has faithfully scanned nearly all of my pictures for the last 5 years or so which means we have hi-res scans of just about every image I've made since 2007.

This also means I can offer prints of my work - for details, please check out my Etsy store.  Prices start at $10.00.
Please note that only a few images are listed. To see a bigger selection, go to Flickr.
