Life without good lighting and art is something that I can't do without. Now and then, I dabble in a bit of built pottery. I am still in early learning stage, but I enjoy it.

Changed my feature wall around with a bit of my Bauhaus inspired relief art. So on to be on display at Tauranga art society art expo. Come check it out. I should have the pie warmer cranking next week if anyone is interested in trying the best gourmet pies in the whole wide world.

Things I've been working on lately - this woodblock, which is to be a part of my (Eye spy with my little eye) series. I've been thrashing the last song on I robot side 2. Genesis Ch 1 - album by Alan's parsons project. It seems to be quite fitting for the image I'm creating. I'm rolling with the vintage gold frames giving contrast perhaps a little drama.
Also experimenting with cinnamon scrolls and gourmet pies for a new pie warmer that is going to be making an appearance soon.

Get ClusterfuNking down here, try some Scooby snacks with a coffee perhaps and check out my latest eclectic collection.

I was listening to this song while doing this post so you're joining in.
Just sold this beauty after only 2 days of listing it.

Sorren, the owner loves vintage finds and turns old vases into unique lamps ✨
No two are alike — and one will probably catch your eye 👀

A lively, offbeat spot where you browse, sip, and connect – somewhere between retro vibes and your neighbourhood café ✨

Art, coffee, vibes and cups. Nothing else comes close.

Greetings all, here at ClusterfuNk we enjoy some background music to set some atmospheric experience with a fresh brew.☕️

We’re still catching up on classic sounds since the dawn of the cool was invented.📀

But this weeks been quite a struggle with the news of Brian Wilson and Sly Stone passing in the same week. 💔

Our playlist is usually thoughtful and we have to pay tribute to our fellow legends of cool as too many keep falling. 😥

But that’s who we are here, where coffee, vintage, music and film all collide into a cluster where your experience is something cool we like you to remember. 😍

And then, of course, when-our vicinity offers up memories of cool wherever you look, our fallen legends are part of our make up and we salute them forever at this retro HQ of ClusterfuNk!😎

Today, Brian Wilson passes at 82 and the first picture is a young Brian courtesy of the ‘Sunflower’ (1970) years new box-set which is good listening. Similar to ‘Pet Sounds’ — just iconic. Rest easy Brian🕊️💔

However, ending on a high note and speaking of iconic — do swing by for a piece of our Ginger Crunch with your brew of choice -- it’s homemade goodness!☕️

Greetings😊 How do you like your coffee?

We like it - vibrant, tasty, and simply on the bright side. Like an outfit I'd choose when excited about a first date, to the art gallery, perhaps?

Oh, we believe in artistry, too, and the art of our coffee being one of the best in town. Using a local roaster (Brightside), you should swing in and try it sometime! We'd love your feedback!🗣

We're at 100 Grey St, Tauranga - across the road from Baririo Brothers.

At this stage, we're open Monday-Friday from 9am. Come say hi, 😉 and check out the talk of the town retro studio and art at work with great coffee☕
