This week we got together and celebrated the launch of SJ Axelby’s beautiful book ‘Interior Portraits‘ in the Drawing Room at Covent Garden Hotel. It was such a joy to write the foreword for this book. SJ brings new life to interior portraiture, capturing in paint the favourite rooms of 89 leading interior designers, antique dealers, florists and chefs.

Join us as we share some snapshots from this special celebration which included an ‘In Conversation’ between Kit and SJ…
