About Bobbi
Bobbi frequently produces depictions of animals, landscapes and the natural world. Shapes are simplified, creating bold silhouettes, and she enjoys the contrasting textures of acrylic paint. Colours have intense emotional associations for Bobbi. She is able to remember in great detail how she was feeling when making a work just from looking at it. She says ‘Art is not about copying the colours. It can be different colours. Maybe you are upset, maybe angry, maybe happy.’
10 years, 10 designs

Browse beautiful prints and fun, unique cards designed at Artbox London, a social enterprise showcasing and nurturing art by people with learning disabilities.
Artbox London is part gallery where art is exhibited and sold, part studio where artists take part in workshops to hone their techniques. All together it’s a space opening up the arts to people with learning disabilities, helping them gain financial independence and inviting them into a welcoming community.
There are also opportunities for artists outside of Artbox London HQ through trips to cultural spaces in London, such as galleries, museums and libraries. These trips are a chance for the artists to get inspiration, spend time in each other’s company and in some cases, build the confidence to visit these places on their own.
Half of the money from every sale goes to the artist behind that piece of work, with the other half funding the workshops and trips they run.
So, choose a piece of art from Artbox London and it will be a talking point for both its great design and brilliant backstory.
