How exciting to welcome a new artist on board — Beth Astles! 🎨✨
Hand-painted with acrylics, Beth draws inspiration from her experiences as a zookeeper. Her art beautifully blends nature with a touch of whimsy — and she’s also one of the happy faces you’ll find at The SQ Studio! 💛
Sushi Sea may look like swells of rippling ocean currents, filled with colourful jellyfish and playful fish, but beneath the beauty lies an important message.
Sadly, our oceans are choking on plastic and rubbish. 🌊💙 Our wonderful fabric and luscious garments, accessories & homewares are a gentle reminder to cherish our oceans — the Earth’s lungs — and to think twice before reaching for single-use plastics.
So, what do you see?
Is it a jellyfish… or is it a plastic bag? 🪼🛍️
Wear it, enjoy it, and let it spark a conversation about caring for our beautiful oceans. 🌏💙
