BIG EYED CHILDREN

 
 






Big eyed children from the 60s have always fascinated me, I find them rather ghoulish but very endearing at the same time.
I must have 100s of these prints and can't stop buying them.
The first 2 prints are by American artists LEE & EVE, I always think this is the same person as the style is too similar.
And the last 4 I think are by D. Golding but not 100% sure!

1960s Vintage Wall Light

The long darks nights are so much easier to deal with when I look at this light!
I really can feel the warm spanish sun, it's just a shame I'm stuck at home with dull wet weather!
This is one of 5 wall lights I have, don't think you can get a much camper light than this, eat your heart Del boy!

Vintage Clocks

 

 
 

  

Here is a selection of my favourite kitsch clocks. From wall clocks to wind ups, I love them and I find collecting them addictive.
I don't really collect a certain make but have a fondness for the cheap clocks from China.
Many of them are thrifted from car boot sales and charity shops but ebay is my main source.

Wild White Horse's

 

                                                          Being as this is a new blog about my love for vintage, I thought my first post should be about my love for mass market art, I've been collecting for years and have hundreds of prints!
From Lynch's dusky maidens to Lee's freaky big eyed children, just can't seem to get enough.
And here is 3 prints that inspired me to do this blog!
