‘Redacted’ portrait, limited edition run of 20 only of A3 or A2 size now available! Message interest ‘Redacted’ is a slight nod to the way the UKSF (and even the Australian SF) are maybe being treated by their respected governments and certain media outlets. #UKSF #SAS #SBS

We’re super excited to be on the BBC The One Show this evening - did we mention it? Our Co-Founder GPR Williams said “When you have an idea that’s new & a bit different & 12 months later you’re asked on national TV to talk it up, it makes you feel like it may just be a good idea!”
