Corkshoes

CorkshoesWe love the simple geometric details on these handcrafted totes. These market totes are sold under the Japanese creator and brand name, Corkshoes. The bags are lined with linen cloth and includes an inside pocket. They also make a few matching pouches. Found them at online handmade sites, Iichi and Tetote Market.

Jung Jung

JungJungLittle information can be found for Japanese artist, Ito Amika. She started playing with needle and thread at a very early age. She studied painting at an art university and worked in many jobs before she went solo in 2012. We are totally engrossed with the realistic detailing of her crochet creations sold under the brand name, JungJung.

MarinaStrocchiMelbourne-born painter and printmaker Marina Strocchi lives in Central Australia working considerably with the Aboriginal artists of the region. She paints the environment of the area showing a strong influence of the Aboriginal culture with flattened perspective, rich coloration and complex repetition.

You can view much of her work on Google images and a few can be seen here at Jan Murphy Gallery.
