Hi – Helen’s husband here. I’ll keep this brief…

Sadly, Helen passed away on 23rd July 2025. She had been fighting stage 4 lung cancer since 2021 and the complications from that finally overwhelmed her.

In the meantime, we had a choice between disabling orders on this site, or losing critical illness support. We’ve kept the site going in the meantime though, as it was always her hope that I’d reactivate the shop when she passed.

I will try to do that soon, and will update this post when I do. Right now — well, it has only been a week and this is a particularly painful reminder of what I’ve just lost. If you’d like to purchase some of Helen’s art, please check back in a couple of weeks.
