MEET THE ARTISAN

Paper cut collaging got into Amanda White's blood following a chance encounter with a pile of old Vogues beside a rubbish bin. Amanda's celebrated collages of portraits and historical houses bring together her love of old buildings and literature. Trained as a theatre designer, each paper cut feels like a set design, drawing you into the scene and finding more, as you take in all the detail.

All of our limited edition artists' prints are expertly printed at our Fine Art Trade Guild accredited printers in England. These are giclee reproductions of original artworks (some historical but mainly created exclusively for The Shop Floor Project) and are printed to museum archival standards.

Each one has an authentication label on the reverse with signature, edition number & printers stamp.

The Shop Floor Project Presents | FOLK ART FROM SOUTH AFRICA

Step inside the canvas tent and cast your eyes over a prize-winning collection of hand-painted antique trays and framed panels, all inspired by the Agricultural Show.

Birds of a Feather is a new collection of limited edition fine art prints taken from a series of original painted panels by Denise Allan. The collection is inspired by the artist's recent discovery of an early 17th century Il Bestiario Barocco (or The Feather Book), created by Dionisio Minaggio whilst he was the Chief Gardener of the state of Milan between 1616 and 1618.

DILLON MARSH  | Assimilation Series (Weaver Bird Nests)

It takes some time for the eyes to adjust to the work of celebrated South African artist Dillon Marsh and to realise what we are looking at. On first glance, the sculptural forms appear to be a breed of giant hairy beasts which roam over a sun-parched landscape. On closer inspection however, the statuesque forms reveal themselves to be the huge nests of the sociable weaverbird who have made their homes utilising the telegraph poles that run through the southern Kalahari desert.

“Fliff Carr’s wares never fail to raise a sophisticated smile” - Rupert Thomas, The World of interiors

In 1719, in the midst of the Age of Enlightenment, when scientific and artistic exploration was sweeping across Europe, a curios man named Louis Renard (publisher, medicine merchant and ‘spy for the British Crown’) was busy creating what is thought to be the first publication of fish in colour. 

Once upon a time, in a studio located in an ancient town in deepest Germany, an artist who was surrounded by hand made props, painted papers, books and all manner of collected objects, created a magical series of original collages, ceramics and limited edition prints for The Shop Floor Project.

PETER ROWLAND | MUSEUM EGGS

In the workshop behind his cottage in the Worcestershire countryside, craftsman and ornithologist Peter Rowland creates hundreds of the most spectacular replica bird eggs, each one hand made and painted.

Painted Plates by Unity Coombes

There is a long tradition of botanical artists who, over centuries, have delicately hand-painted porcelain and ceramic plates with sprigs of flowers and boughs of flora and fauna. British artist Unity Coombes takes this tradition full circle and uses these antique plates as subjects for her own paintings on paper.

A Retrospective in Plates

Can you hear it? The rhythmic snip, snip, snip coming from the studio of Sarah Battle, nestled high up in the attic of an 18th century weaver’s cottage in the West Yorkshire hills. It’s a song that has been singing for many years.

A collection of works inspired by flowers, plants and the natural world

"As delicate as tissue paper, as ancient as the land"

New limited edition prints of Miku Tsuchiya's latest collection of paintings The Gardeners exclusively for The Shop Floor Project.

These beautiful prints are taken from the artist's delicate paintings which have an almost veil-like quality. Japanese painter Miku Tsuchiya creates these works with layer upon layer of translucent watercolour washes, creating a stillness, even a monastic quality, with ancient stone-like figures wandering through gardens, picking flowers or sowing seeds.

So let's smell some flowers, take off our shoes and feel the grass beneath our feet and let Miku Tsuchiya help you take a deep, slow breath.

A new collection of works by British artist Raphael Balme. A graduate of Chelsea College of Arts, Balme’s work plays with colour and pattern. Drawing on folk art motifs, she makes dream-like landscapes, interiors and portraits featuring fictional characters from duchesses to clowns.
