A film I made with fairly naive intentions at in February has become the starting point for the work which will make up my contributions to this years Degree Show. Initially this film sprung up from my research on Freud’s […]
The stuff I got. Well a the minute I am gathering more stuff to create my sculptures with, and I have had another generous donation given to me, it nice to see people appreciate the work and want to help […]
I made this piece for my Easter crit and I think I followed too many advices from too many people. The opinion of one of the visitor artists kind of demoralised me a little bit. He said that for him, […]
Easter crit: I presented some of my pieces in the seminar room to help me to visualize a bit what the degree show might look like. Because I went through a lot of mental discussion whilst making the “bird”, I […]
New drawings using my new pastels and inks. I’m still wanting to exhibit loads of drawings for the degree show. I love the new colours. I’m trying to draw directily in colour, rather than using pencil and then colour in. […]

To investigate and expand on ideas that emerged towards the end of my postgraduate research; the presence of the body, a desire to explore materials more fully and the importance of space- to think, move, and make intuitively
Each post, in fifty words or less, will document thoughts, processes and progresses on the following projects: Walking and Drawing; Performing Drawing and Waiting and Drawing. Why fifty words? I tend to waffle, so it will be good practice in […]
This blog will document the development of a project to be shown in the ‘Cloth and Memory’ exhibition at Salts Mill, August – November 2013. I will be working with surviving mill workers to recover lost memories of place and […]
I was awarded one of the A-N review bursaries, which is exciting. Here I will document my interactions with various artists and curators as I visit them, and talk about my work and how it might achieve a higher profile. […]

The book is developing… final design is done, made a video to help promote it on RocketHub and started a Facebook page to keep friends updated with its progress and as a place to hold info that didn’t make it […]
There was a collective ‘oh xxxx’ in work last week as we were all given a letter containing our projected pensions on retirement. One of the perils of working in the arts I suppose. My dream of going back to […]
Fragments of a dream These pieces are further explorations and a certain amount of playfulness and experimentation into externalising the internal. They originated as images of pieces of my painting ‘Fools Gold’ which I found to be paintings within their […]
Drawings from observation using the iron board that I deconstructed, viewed from different angles and perspectives. I feel this way of working has a lot of potential as this opens a new line of enquiry and ideas for creating new […]
Ceredigion Over Easter I went to see my better half’s family in what I can probably only describe as the most beautiful place in Wales I have visited in a long time. I’m really looking forward to Gideon Koppel’s exhibition […]
These are the drawings I made from the book “Toys of the Avant-Garde” by Jose Lebrero Stals published by Museo Picasso Malaga. My tutor lent me this book and I absolutely loved it. The exhibition was on last Summer in […]
Well definitely something between paddling and rowing… To help make more room for my art practice and to allow a proper rhythm to emerge I’ve slimmed down my online presence and and will be focusing on keeping my axis pages […]
More drawings from the book “Toys from the Avant-Garde” I specially had a interest in the toys of Pablo Picasso, the hand puppets of Paul Klee and the carved wood finger puppets from an unknown artist.
