Drawings of The Underground Restaurant

MsMarmitelover
My mum, Margaret Rodgers, is an artist and I asked her to do a few drawings at my home restaurant. Some of them will feature in my upcoming book.

Fab drawings - remind me a lot of the embroidery work of Louise Gardiner. Has your Mum seen her designs? Think she might like the style... I worked for the card company that print her work as blank greeting cards, so if she might like some of these let me know! x

I love the art. First time I've seen your site, read about it in the piece in Olive. Haven't read through it yet but if it's anything like the comments indicate, I'll love it!

I love this kind of Art work. If you ever do turn these pictures into Tea Towels or Aprons I'd like one of each please. Will really brighten up my kitchen.
