It's with pride I post this particular post today. I met Bangor-based artist Kat Kirk back in 2004. Over the past 12 years I've seen her train & draw, draw, draw with the dedication needed to become adept & confident enough to take her artwork onto skin. 

Kat now has her own place in Addiction Piercing & Tattoo Parlour, Bangor, tattooing both clients' designs and her own original flash.

I featured her amazingly cool candles previously, but today I'm sharing with you her newest venture- bringing her artwork to large scale, vivid scarves.

Her Big Cartel store has the designs available for pre-order, or you can call into her studio to see the prints in real life. I swung by today & was really impressed by them. The scarves are huge (140cm x 140cm), the fabric is soft & flowing and the photographic prints are clean, clear and gorgeous.

My favourite scarf is the blue & white. It's a photographic image of dozens of tattoo flash stencils that you use to mark out a tattoo on the skin.​

I Want The Finest Silks Known To Mankind!

Lush Scarves is the go-to for beautiful, 100% silk and hand embroidered scarves. I've dozens of retro print scarves, but I always get drawn to buying the mad patterns and then realise they clash with my mad patterned outfit. Lush Scarves gave me this daffodil, ray of sunshine, square, silk scarf to review.

The colour is so zingy, and will brighten up my winter wardrobe, I also think wearing it with denims would be a great match.  it's about four times larger than other square scarves I own making it very versatile. Lush Scarves have it in a rainbow of colours alongside other designs. Get accessorising.
