You know the names.

But there’s more to the ShipArt leadership team than coordinating the safe movement of artwork across the globe…

During a walk about the Surrey Artist Open Studios trail this weekend, I stopped by the studio of Libby Daniels (@libby_daniels_ceramics) to view her latest collection of handmade ceramics.

I took the opportunity to ask Libby about her process, particularly how she develops shapes and explores colour in her work. It was also interesting to discuss whether she creates with a specific audience in mind, or whether her focus is primarily on personal exploration and enjoyment in making ceramics.

Libby’s work can next be seen at the Sussex Craft Week event in Arundel, 20–28 June 2026.

Top tip… When shipping artwork internationally in a wooden crate, correct packaging marks really matter. Missing or incorrect markings can lead to customs delays, returns, or even (gulp) destruction of the artwork.

Top tip: Avoid using red or orange stamps unless required for hazardous goods, as they may trigger unnecessary customs inspections.

Our crate markings indicate ISPM 15 compliance, fragile contents, keep dry instructions, correct orientation, dimensions, and gross weight helping ensure safe and compliant transit worldwide.

Saw this and instantly felt lifted. There’s something wonderful about both the artist and her art. At 90, she’s still bringing beauty to her community, and that’s given me the push I needed to get on with my day.

I’m officially inviting her to Heathrow. 😊

Original post:
@factexplainers Anežka Kašpárková, a 90-year-old former agricultural worker from Louka, Czech Republic, transformed her tiny village into a stunning open-air art gallery. Using nothing but a small brush and vibrant blue paint, she hand-painted intricate, traditional Moravian floral patterns onto the walls, doors, and windows of local homes.

Kašpárková, often affectionately known as “Agnes,” took up the hobby in retirement after learning from another local woman who did similar volunteer work. When her mentor passed away, Anežka took over to keep the tradition alive.
