The AOI

The AOI was established in 1973 to advance and protect illustrator’s rights and encourage professional standards. The AOI is a non-profit making trade association dedicated to its members’ professional interests and the promotion of illustration.

Squashed Rainbows is now a member of the AOI - looking forward to reading through the members only sections and seeing what is on offer. The Business Master Classes at St James Church also look good.

Sunday trip down Columbia Road

On Sunday i went down Columbia Road Market after hearing so much about it...and now i know why! Its A-Mazing! The actual market its self is mainly just flowers with one food stall and one or two brick a brac stalls round the corner but the shops along side it are fantastic, full of unique interesting things, i just loved them.



The only problem was that it was so busy (not a problem for the sellers) but for someone wanting to spend hours browsing each shop the pushing and shoving became tiresome. It also only opens on a Sunday, as do the shops so no chance of doing a sneaky mid week visit for a quieter day. But it is worth the visit. And i challenge anyone so try and resist buying while your there, i ended up carrying home a huge banana plant from Michael, The Tropical Plant Company's stall and i couldn't resist a bunch of these Sunflowers......

I went to Waterloo and then caught the No.22 bus which goes right through the City which is a great area to see on a Sunday morning at 9am when its oh so quite.
