We're not going to pretend these are cheap, but if you have money to invest and want to invest it in art, Sir Peter Blake has two new limited edition prints on the market – Vera Puzzle and 24 Flags.

Both are part of his 'Found Art' series, as well as as being giclee prints with a silkscreen glaze and in a signed limited edition of just 25 of each. The flags one, as you can see, is a collage of Union Jack images, while the Vera Puzzle artwork, which is pictured over the page, is inspired by vintage Mickey Mouse imagery.

Both are sized at 36 x 42 inches and both are available now for £2,500 each.

More art and another product inspired by old vinyl! The Tossed Vinyl Wall Art is a digital print of randomly scattered records.

The close-ups of albums are set against a stark white background, which provides a contrast with the black vinyl and gives the piece a Sixties op-art look. The canvas measures 20 by 30 inches.

It costs $48 (about £30) from Urban Outfitters.

Coulson Macleod Etiquette Prints

We mentioned Coulson Macleod’s Decades prints a few weeks ago, but those aren’t the only typographic gems in his range. Also worthy of noting are his series of Etiquette Prints.

The three prints in this range are made up of rules of good old-fashioned manners such as how to treat a lady, table manners and drinking tea. One statement in each print is in a bolder font, and its from these that each one takes it name. Choose from “Napkin Not Serviette”, “Lunch Not Dinner” or “Pudding Not Dessert”. The typeface has a distressed look to it, which combined with the oak frame, adds to the vintage look of the prints.

The prints cost £199 each and can be ordered from the Coulson Macleod website.

Mummola print by Sanna Annukka

Mummola2
New designs from Sanna Annukka are always worthy of note and this Mummola print is an especially nice addition to her shop.

The print is more literal than some of her designs showing a busy stove and well-stacked shelves. Apparently influenced by the memory of her grandmother's kitchen, the colourful pots and pans are inspired by her own collection and will appeal to anyone who has amassed a similar collection. 

Printed as a five colour silk screen, the edition is limited to 75 so, if you like it, you'd better snap it up now. 

The print costs £195.

Selling her wares under the name Photographik, Florida-based graphic designer Kim Johnson takes her inspiration from mid-century Scandinavian designs, which is always a winner with us.

Pictured here is a floral design based in a pattern from a vintage teacup set, whilst another design features illustrated mushrooms inspired by a Finnish bowl. All of her prints are retro in style and use paper that is produced to the highest environmental standards. Expect to pay between £10 and £16 depending on the size and design.

Visit the Photographik Etsy store to view her whole collection.
