DECADENCE VINTAGE FAIRS
 
I love Christine Gorman's Off One distinctive artworks - the detail is amazing, using various images, text, print and pattern to create combined mixed-media collages.  Each picture is unique and uses modern and vintage materials and Christine has created some Belfast and Titanic themed pieces especially for FROCK AROUND THE DOCK - A TITANIC VINTAGE AFFAIR! which will be taking place on the Belfast Barge on Sunday 1st April.

Christine's artworks can be commissioned upon request, to create a personalized one off  work of art.

We loved artist Christine Gorman's work which she exhibited at Frock Around The Clock earlier this month so I'm delighted that she will be taking part in The Retro Rooms Show on Sunday 4th March.
You can view more samples of Christine's work on her Off-One website.  Her distinctive artwork uses various images, text,  print and pattern to create a combined mixed-media collage, and each picture is unique using modern and vintage materials. Christine's artworks and bespoke furniture can be commissioned to create a personalised piece.
 
 
The gals at Flax Fox are joining us at The Retro Rooms Show this Sunday and they have some new original screen prints since we last saw them at one of our events earlier this year. Very Norn Irish, very different, and not a leprechaun or shillelagh in sight!

There's nothing ugly about the creations of Ugly Duckling, and we fell in love with their upcycled furniture when they exhibited for the first time at our August vintage fair. Ruth and Phill are the talented duo behind the Ugly Duckling brand and are responsible for transforming unloved furniture into something original, beautiful and fun. Having just returned from two weeks trawling the vintage stores in Orlando, we can't wait to see what treasures they bring along to our Retro Rooms Show on 2nd October. Here are some pictures of their stall at the August event as a wee taster of what's to come.

Phill is also the graphic artist behind Arcane Media, and we loved his dark and macabre artworks. Visit his website to see more of his one-of-a-kind paintings and designs.
 
 
We are glad to see Moyra and Denise of Circa Ceramics return to Frock Around The Clock this Sunday with their quirky collection of vintage household ceramics, and this time they will be bringing these gorgeous vintage assemblage boxes.

Created by Denise who exhibited last year at the Royal Ulster Academy, the artwork in these boxes contains all sorts of lovely vintage ephemera and bits and pieces. We love them!
