I seek out moments that occur in our present urban setting, where evolving abstract beauty, deconstruction and decay collide. In nature we see infinite patterns, intricate and perfect.
On the streets I see something similar emerging… my work is immersed in recreating the rhythm and found beauty on the walls and streets around East London, layered with papers, graffiti, and text.
Happy colour Friday to all you colourful and creative souls out there! And what a better inspiration for colour than Mother Nature herself and always my true source.
🌈Holly Tucker launched #colourfriday as an exciting new annual alternative to Black Friday to remind us the colour and creativity that small and independent businesses bring to the UK.
This year is even more special as it brings a big bunch of these businesses under the newly launched @holly.Co #thehomeofsmallbusiness
🌈Just buying one Christmas gift from an independent business instead this year, will relocate a vital £2.7 billion between small businesses.
🌈So please can I ask you to visit the #homeofsmallbusiness this Christmas 🎄 and know that every £1 you spend with a small business really does make a difference. It’s also great for the planet as stocks are usually made to order or in limited editions and most of all, made to last.
🌈Please share this message, shop small and shop independent this year!
Happy Colour Friday 🌈🦋to all my fellow CO’s and creative small business friends out there. 😊🌈

Good afternoon. Another rainy day in the UK. All it seems to do is pour. I sometimes feel the weather is in line with our sad vibrations. Things are feeling pretty out of control and it really is distracting.
🦋 I honestly feel we just need to focus within and do the work to bring in the light to shine over the darkness.
The butterfly signifies the power of transformation. We all have the ability to listen to our innate wisdom, guide ourselves through difficult times, and emerge better and stronger than before. 🦋
Last night we received some sad news of a dear friends sudden passing and I’m feeling adrift and sad. He was a special person who loved to bring people together in music and creativity. A true beacon of light. 🦋
“A butterfly lights beside us, like a sunbeam... and for a brief moment its glory and beauty belong to our world...
but then it flies on again, and although we wish it could have stayed, we are so thankful to have seen it at all.”
In loving memory and gratitude for having been in our life. Rest in peace sweet soul. You will be missed by so many🦋MTF❤️ x

Memento Mori skull is exclusively available through @holly.co
I thought I’d tell you more about the story behind memento mori? Read on…
💀In medieval times, the theory and practice of reflecting on the transient nature of earthly life was known as "memento mori": a Latin phrase translating to "remember that you must die".
💀Artists have explored the concepts of memento mori in a number of unique ways throughout history, developing a universal language of rich visual symbolism over time. Common elements of this genre include skulls, nature and flowers.
💀The artwork symbolises the ephemeral nature of life, the awareness impermanence heightens appreciation of the present. 🙏🏼
This limited edition print is printed onto fine art canvas, hand glazed, framed and ready to hang. Beautifully macabre with a stylish twist.
Visit the Home of Small business @holly.co to take a closer look 💀 Evi x

Good Monday afternoon everyone. We are into November already which also means a countdown to Christmas.
I just wanted to point you in the direction of @holly.co and shop small and independent business this year. Putting money into creativity is the way forward because it supports individuals to continue to create and be authentic to their calling.
If you haven’t look at #thehomeofsmallbusiness then take a look. There will be a huge injection of colour to replace the dare I say it…(🖤)
Jerome’s Orange foresters is available on my store @holly.co and inspired by urban texture and spray paint around Brick lane, London. Like butterflies, urban texture excites me in the way it is always in metamorphosis. I see an abstract beauty evolve when I look closely. The orange forester butterfly compliment the emerald green spray paint and create an abstract pattern and symmetry.
Have a great afternoon and don’t forget to pop into the store from the comfort of your sofa. So many talented CO’s to shop from and enjoy the personal touch of shopping, including me! 🧡💚
