About

Surface for air,, a metaphorical reference to the human need to breathe in a world where we are quite literally overwhelmed. When do we surface for air? In essence few of us can. I was able to when, back in 2005 I retired. Doesn't matter from what but suffice to say while it owes me nothing it wasn't my first choice career. Once out of the swamp I put my creative mind to work. Became a street photographer, started making digital art and eventually started to design womens scarves.

The art, that is applied to the surfaces of the products offered here, is as a result of my endeavours over nearly two decades. My inspiration is manifold, too vast to describe here. My art doesn't convey any messages or rather only conveys one message and that is joy, as after all were that not the purpose none of this work  would see the light of day. 

Surface for air have partnered with Contrado, who craft all these products in the UK and while each item is bespoke, the targeted turn around from order receipt to shipment is 48hrs. 

Surface for air then is a conduit for my art, better it employed in some way than hid away on my hard drives. The caveat, of course is, that my purpose is not entirely altruistic. Indeed it would be great to see this flourish and to be translated in to revenue, but thats in your hands not mine!

My doing is done, countless hours of joy now reside on these products I hope you get the same amount of joy from owning even the smallest of them.....
