If you’ve ever been a Fierce Babe market (online or off), you may know the name Theo Blue: they’re a firm favourite amongst babes with their beautiful colourful LGBTQ+ pop culture pins, prints, tees, hats and other accessories. Now definitely a Fierce Babe regular, Theo has been illustrating and drawing as long as we can remember and is an active and valued member of the Fierce Babe group.
Theo lives in Norwich with their four cats and two rats, and draws inspiration from magic, fantasy, D&D and Saturday morning cartoons. Their current range is available to purchase on Etsy and includes a selection of tshirts with gaming designs, pride flag stickers, custom pride prints, pronoun pins and even a romantic-themed axolotl postcard to send to your secret crush… what more could you ask for in an online shop?!
A non-binary babe and definite role model, Theo illustrates and produces some beautiful pride pieces, but one you won’t find on the shop you can instead find under one of the busiest shopping streets of Norwich. Following the well-publicised destruction of the Bimini Bon Boulash mural by Sharpay Salazar and street artist Knapple in the Pottergate Underpass, Theo took to the St Stephens’ Underground Gallery to paint their own mural celebrating all things LGBTQ+ in their trademark colourful style. Next time you’re in NR1, it is most definitely worth a visit (and be sure to tag them if you snap a photo!).
Aside from illustrating and adoring all things feline, Theo is a passionate equality campaigner and always willing to share their knowledge and resources. Their Linktree is updated often and here you’ll find info on Black Trans Lives Matter, UK Trans Healthcare and template letters to MPs on relevant issues.
Written at the bottom of Theo’s rainbow mural is the message “dedicated to all my LGBTQ+ family: together we can do anything!”. We’ll leave it on that note… because they’re quite right. :)

This is a wildly cool link thing. Yes, it's expensive. link Yes, it serves only to delight and fascinate. No, I'm not saying that you need one, but link you'd better believe it's ok to want one. This is art for the horologically obsessed, and I'm here for it.
I've always been fascinated by MB&F and Urwerk's 2012 collaboration, the absolutely bonkers C3H5N309 Experiment ZR012. Crafted in a pair of 12-piece limited edition runs made from either zirconium or black zirconium and featuring a Wankel engine-inspired movement, I think the Experiment ZR012 should link rightfully be considered a foundational piece of the link weirdo world of independent watchmaking that's proliferated over the past decade. link Lot 104 has an estimate between CHF 20,000 and 40,000.
