Frogs in the pond
Whilst walking around my garden I was happy to see the frogs were back again for another year, if a little earlier. It has really inspired me and I have some great ideas for future pieces and can't wait to start!

Textile Landscapes
Over the year I have spent many hours wondering different parts of Cornwall, collecting inspiration for my artwork. From Cadsonbury Wood to the stunning view at the top of it's Fort, the tors and valleys of Bodmin moor, to the depths of the gorges. There are some beautiful walks on offer, if you can find the energy to walk up the tors, keeping an eye out for the bogs!!!

First Day Of My First Exhibition, Disaster Strikes!!!
Today was my first day in the Ebenezer Gallery in Polperro, I was looking forward to seeing the large range of artwork on display, including my six pieces. Though after ten minutes and making a sale, I heard a huge bang. Rubble fell from the ceiling and the whole gallery shook. Not sure what had just happened, the couple who had brought a piece said they saw a tree or boulder fall from the bank onto the gallery. Scary or what! Luckily none of the artwork was damaged and nob
