Product information:

75x50cm cotton teatowel, printed and finished in the UK.

Teatowels are a bit like an art print, but you can dry your dishes with it. I like things that have a clear use. My notebooks are made to shove in your back pocket and taken everywhere, and these are made for wiping up whatever you’ve spilled. But you can frame them if you like, some people do.

Machine wash at 30 degrees, using non-bio powder.

About the design:

This is the view from the window of Antonio's apartment in Porto. It really looks like that - a handsome tree on top of the highest hill in the area, with the small stone shack next to it, and you can just about glimpse the sea around the corner. Usually there are some cats and dogs around as well, and if you're like me you can spy on people through their windows too.

I painted this on a cardboard box that contained an electrical heater (it was freezing in the apartment!).
