Rockett!

I'm really pleased that the lovely people at Rockett St George have
carefully selected some Roo Abrook designs to sell on what is my
favourite online shopping store, and definitely the most stylish!
(You'd struggle to find a twee item here I'm glad to say)
......Love it all... there's plenty of gorgeous, unique art,
gifts and homeware  to put on your christmas list!

A bit about my passion


Welcome to Roo Abrook blog on all things patterned, designed, art, vintage, etc.

I am designing and making art, all of the time, but at the moment I really enjoy producing Collaged Keepsakes.

These are made using tactile antique book covers, beautiful vintage franked french postage stamps, oldtime musical score sheets and metallic gold hand pulled screen prints combined with photography and illustration.

Designs incorporate hand drawn butterflies, birds, swallows, owls, kestrels, black birds, storks, bunny rabbits, victorian fans, circus horses, flames, skulls, victorian frames, tattoo ribbons n scrolls, roses, teardrops, rainbows, clouds and stars.

I have a passion for print and pattern used on wallpapers, textiles and ceramics. I also collect vintage and antique papers that I discover in old books and ephemera.
