Le Petit Marche- Oct 2010

Thanks to all the lovely and interesting people that stopped to have a look, chat and also buy. A big thank you to friends and family that came to support as well. I had a lot of fun. See you all soon with more goodies.

Lemi Ghariokwu- Fela album covers

This is the work of the artist behind the iconic Fela Kuti album artwork- Lemi Ghariokwu. The album covers where and still are as distinct and recognisable as the phenomenal Afrobeat music they 'clothed'.

So colourful, vibrant, unapologetic. Masters at work indeed! If you can, go and see the Fela! broadway show, showing in London at the National Theatre from next month.
