Oi! Panda is a collaboration between Rose and Andrew Bentley-Steed, who share an interest in traditional crafts.

Based in Kinghorn, on the coast of Fife (north from Edinburgh across the Forth estuary), we take our inspiration from the beautiful gardens and the wildlife we see along the shore.

As artists, Rose practices botanical illustration while Andrew practices figurative painting in the chiaroscuro style.  Both Rose and Andrew have produced, exhibited and sold work in Scotland and England.

Rose is the paper artist, creating beautiful hand-bound journals, decoupage greetings cards and other paper ornaments (among many other interesting and beautiful things).  Andrew works with a letterpress and since moving to Kinghorn, has rediscovered his love of sculpting works from found wood.  Click through our pages to see more.

If you want something more personal, we also create one-off items on a commission basis: if it can be imagined, it can be made.  Whether you're having trouble finding that special gift for a wedding, anniversary, birthday or Christmas or whether you want to impress a corporate client and are bored with the usual blah, we will create it affordably and quickly.  Using a variety of traditional techniques including blind-embossing, linocut and woodcut printing, decoupage, painting, sculpture and embroidery, we know you'll love the result.

If you're a trade customer and want to join those already selling our work, then just use the contact form to let us know who you are and how we can get in touch with you._
