Cowrie shells throughout West African were used as currency pre colonialism. It was thought to be preferred over gold as it was difficult to counterfit. Today, cowrie shells represent abundance and financial prosperity.
 
I wanted to create an art collection that is truly "affordable art" for all of this lovely community! Voilà! The "Little Loves" collection was born. I know so many of you would love to collect a Love Original, and money is the only thing standing in your way right now- This way you can own a beautiful piece of original art before I become the next big thing since Kehinde Wiley! 
 
This special collection is starting at the introductory price of £33- Future collections will be more so lock in your favourites at this price!

Each original has its own backstory, its own design and is mounted in its own paper frame mount, ready to put into any frame of your choice.
