When an 8yr old girl…
…has a sudden flash of deep conviction and blind faith, that one day, she too will be able to fly up and away, just like a real bird… never, ever doubt her…
I’m the artist you’ve never heard of…
…and I have a BRAND NEW WEBSITE COMING in 2027… in the meantime, here’s me…
Mum, artist, writer, poet, maker, Mid-Wales dweller. Famous everywhere except anywhere. Wordy. Playful. Experimental. Particular. 50% utterly daft. 50% earnest bard. Excited by ideas. Wildly unfeasible. Totally do-able…
Grounding myself in my ridiculously posh new studio…
…a Thomas Heatherwick designed Creative Unit up at Aberystwyth Arts Centre… more to follow once I’ve stopped levitating in the space and the LIGHT and…
…I mean…. looooook! Where space-age design meets the futuristic-domestic!
There was quite the buzz about these when they were built in 2009 (yep, 17 not 27 yrs ago!) - and there is still that brilliant buzz about them today.
They manage to pull off a juxtaposed architectural triptych, by combining a sort of timeless, space-age, futuristic-domestic aesthetic (that’ll be the ‘tin foil’ exterior!) all in one building.
Back in 2009, I vividly remember walking around these and thinking to myself ‘Wow! I’d LOVE to have one of those as a studio space!’
And look, dear art collector - look where I am today! I feel so so SO lucky! (And yes, life and lessons and never ever give up, you’ll get there etc etc!)


Hedgerows are one of my most favourite ‘things’.
A longstanding, deeply soothing and reassuring signifier of ‘home’ to me - that goes right back to childhood.
This brand new piece was also borne of my irrepressible passion and commitment…
…to reclaiming and reinstating the rightful meaning of words and phrases…
…one piece of artwork at a time…
