London weekend pt1: Different Prints studio

One of Nick's best friends (and mine too after all these years), and the kids' godfather, Andreas (Auny), is an artist.  And a very good one at that.  He has a studio in the Bernie Grant Art Centre in Tottenham where he does silk screen printing amongst other arty things.  Jasmine loves art.  Since she was a small toddler she has loved experimenting with paints, crayons and crayons on any available surface (yes, even the white walls in our rented homes).  Auny promised her and Ben that they could come to his studio and do some art work one day, and that day came when we went to London for the weekend to celebrate the Chinese New Year.  So off they went with Nick and their cousin Jerome to get their hands dirty.  And dirty they sure got!  I don't have any pictures of them doing any art though - if I had been there you could be sure I'd have shots of every possible activity from every possible angle, with every combination of people present.  Alas, Nick had the camera and he is not quite so enthusiastic.....  He did, however, take some cute pics of the children each trying on Auny's flat cap and scarf......




And one of Auny's most recent pieces of the late J Dilla
