Pick Me Up

Went and had a quick look round 'Pick Me Up' at Somerset House.
I missed last years and wanted to make the effort this year - it's way smaller than I expected it to be. There were some really lovely stuff but I didn't bring my SLR so I only have a couple of rubbish pictures from my phone. Was a bit disappointed as all the prints I loved were well over £100, was looking to buy something new for my room. There's a lot of other stuff set up like workshops for screen printing though nothing seemed to be running when I was there. Definitely going back..for another look. (I also spied Lizzy Stewart and was sadly illustrator-fame-struck and ran away..ha)
But yeah, apologies for the crappy picture quality, definitely worth the trip for anyone thinking about going.

    I went back and bought a print in the end, glad I went back a second time, so much amazing stuff.
