Help Advocate Sarah Larnach and her artwork get to London!!!
Our incredibly talented Advocate and friend, Sarah Larnach needs your help!
Sarah Larnach is urgently busting-a-gut to fund travel to London to get herself and her paintings over there, so she can exhibit at the launch of the new Ladyhawke album, Anxiety, which she has done all the album art for!
Sarah has set up a crowd funder account through Pozible, where you can pledge money for creative projects and ideas!
Sarah is not politely asking for something for nothing- Whats really being asked here is that with your pledge, you purchase artwork from Sarah Larnach, and at really good value, so that she go to the UK – exhibit at this album release party- garner more interest in her work – increase the value of her work, and therefore – increase the resale value of your investment! WE ALL WIN! For $30 you can get a signed and numbered print - this is about half the cost of what Sarah usually sells them for!!

Club Mumble features Sarah Larnach and the Nouvea Crusier
We stumbled across this nice little write up on Club Mumble about Sarah Larnach and our Nouvea Crusier! Last Hi Summer Element Eden went back to our roots to introduce the Nouvea Crusier. We found it only fitting to celebrate Eden’s skateboarding history with the Nouvea Cruiser, printed with a piece of our Advocates artwork. We believe it is the perfect union, tying Element Eden’s skateboarding roots, with the Advocate program which grounds the brand today.
Eden Advocate, Sarah Larnach and her print ‘ Deco Lady’ was chosen to feature on the Nouvea Cruiser as she has skateboarding in her heart. Skateboarding when she was younger, until an injury slowed her down, it makes us extra proud to have Sarah’s work printed on our first Element Eden skateboard!!

SOYA AWARDS!
Our good friend, and talented photographer, Ali Mitton has submitted work to win the Soya Awards in the photography category!
The Qantas Spirit Of Youth Awards 365 (SOYA 365) has been the leading grants program for emerging creative talent for over seven years.
SOYA365 is a creative melting pot spanning 11 key creative disciplines including interactive gaming, music, writing, film making, architecture and more.
SOYA provides practical support in the form of an overseas trip and tickets to the hottest industry events and experiences that money can’t buy plus $5,000 in cash.
But the real incentive is the opportunity to build a professional mentoring relationship with creative leaders like Marc Newson, Zimmermann, Ashley Ringrose and Brad Eldridge from Soap Creative, Lee Groves and Liz Ann Macgregor, helping young innovators expand their horizons, build up their business base, and learn the ropes from leading industry icons and some of the greatest creative minds in the world.
Last year SOYA attracted over 10,000 entries submitted by over 1600 young artists, designers, filmmakers, photographers and musicians. In the seventh year of the Awards, we look forward to recognising the work of a new generation and giving talented Australians the financial and professional support they need to share their work with the world.

I never imagined to crave eating Pantones until I saw these gorgeous tarts by artist Emilie Guelpa. This artist combines food with design and it looks so lovely, it is not a photoshop work of art, these tarts exist and their receipts exist too, if you can read French that is!!! The presentation is immaculate, you could just stare at them all day, however be warned, you may find yourself drooling over them! You can see more of Emilie’s creations on her website.
