Work in progress

I'm in the throes of a creative burst this autumn, an editorial piece for a fabulous magazine (watch this space), an exciting heart painting and the preliminary character sketches for a wonderful AP book.

This exciting project is a collaboration with my good friend and talented writer Katherine Sutherland.

To give you a small taster, here are a couple of little sketches.

Peaceful Doves

I've been doodling more bits and bobs, here is another Christmas themed one, although it might find it's way into other things.
Although I drew the sketch up a few weeks ago I have spent this evening colouring it up. I took this time and this peaceful dove as a meditation almost to think about a close family friend who has is very ill.


With this dove, I wish him peace and love x

Yarn bombing

Whilst driving through the nearby town of Chipping Nortonand I noticed some yarn bombing had been going on! Fab as I didn't think this sort of thing had reached the sleepy Cotswolds.

I shall take this as a good omen as my
Mum is going to attempt to teach me to knit over the next few days.

This may sound easy but as a left handed bod many have tried and failed to teach me in the past!
