The weekend...

Well I had a great weekend, hope you did. We were really busy on the market. I think people are getting geared up to Christmas and Robert Johnson continues to be our best seller.

I met up with some old friends on Sunday and we had a drink at the beautifully updated St Pancras station in the heart of London, if you haven't been it is well worth a visit and you may see someone famous - we saw actor Robert Powell!!

Get orders in, in time for Christmas...

Hi, Davie here.

Have you ever wondered what to get for those awkward friends and relatives for Christmas?

Well, we have some new special wall-block art designs coming up, so take a look at our latest designs , and get cracking with your orders in time for Christmas delivery... or even get down to Camden Market this coming weekend.

Robert Johnson

Robert Leroy Johnson (May 8, 1911 – August 16, 1938) is among the most famous of Delta blues musicians. His landmark recordings from 1936–1937 display a remarkable combination of singing, guitar skills, and songwriting talent that have influenced generations of musicians.

Johnson's shadowy, poorly documented life and death at age 27 have given rise to much legend.
Considered by some to be the "Grandfather of Rock 'n' Roll", his vocal phrasing, original songs, and guitar style have influenced a broad range of musicians, including Muddy Waters, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, Jack White and Eric Clapton, who called Johnson "the most important blues singer that ever lived". He was also ranked fifth in Rolling Stone's list of 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.

I have many works of Robert Johnson so for more information on my work please check out http://www.davidbaillieart.com/
