|   ARTWORK AND LUXURY ART PRINT HOMEWARES WITH A SPRINKLE OF WHIMSY  |

We love what we do, and what we do is ART!  We take our original artwork, and print it on to lots of homewares and gifts for you to enjoy.  Looking for more information about us, or our artworks?  Head to the "About" or "Gallery" sections of the menu at the top of the page.

Exciting new project update!

We are running a Kickstarter campaign to get our  "That Aint a Strawberry Thief" artwork on to giftwrap and wallpaper.  We've been working hard behind the scenes to get the artwork ready to print as a repeating pattern, and have samples back from the print supplier.  The Kickstarter campaign is all about getting support together so we can make that all important first print run.  As a reward for supporting our Kickstarter campaign, you will get the perk of earlier access to wallpaper and giftwrap, at a cheaper price as a thank-you for helping us to get this started!  Are you in?  Find out more on our Kickstarter page here - Wallpaper and Giftwrap: A Cats and Ham William Morris Parody

Our Top Picks

Here are just a few of our favourite products we'd like to share with you, in all their quirkyness and vibrant colours.  Great for a gift (alternatively, let out your inner interior designer, treat yourself and jazz up your home!).  

Catkin Tree Studio is a small independent business, meaning every product is designed with love and individually packed with care to ship out to you.   The studio was dreamt up by Ruth Harris to make her art accessible to enjoy in practical ways.  Ruth is an artist, designer and maker based in Oxfordshire and her work reflects her curiosity for all things interesting - but is frequently inspired by the natural world (and cats!).  Often her designs are imbued with whimsy and humour, to make something just a bit different!  She has exhibited work both at the Oxon Museum in Woodstock, and Aire Place Studios in Leeds. Selected painted artworks are available to buy as prints on homewares through the Catkin Tree Studio website, a few high street outlets and at fairs/events Ruth attends.   Information about some of her other works can also found on the gallery pages.
