I dug up this rock while hiking the Negev desert in Israel last year. It’s sharp and kinda chalky and it feels like it has stories to tell when you look deep into its lines and layers.

I am a mixed media artist, tutor and counselllor. I love working with children especially. Life is all about learning and in my world ... creating every day!!

Making marks with paint and pens.

cuando los Capsus usaban zapatos...

I collaged "Krampus is Coming For You" together with my own monoprints as well as one of my drawings of Japanese Noh masks that I cut out of an old sketchbook. For the second piece, I had a drawing of Marie Antoinette as an ice cream cone, so I gave her a dress, put a background of my monoprints on her, etc. Then I added more cherries, and the circle reminded me of a clock, so I inked in the arms accordingly.

Another full sketchbook spread.

I'm making an effort to finish what I start in my sketchbook.

I've been fascinated by ravens for a few years now and doodle and paint them constantly. Here's the latest version ...

I don't normally paint trees. So I was surprised when my daily doodling produced this loose interpretation of the tree in my garden. I quite like it. Doodles are magical.

A pair of ravens, black, and white. Two sides of a whole.

A simple doodle in watercolour of some pot plants. Imaginary, of course.

Just doodling what comes to mind. Obviously water!

I'm never sure of what I'm going to doodle with watercolour or where all of this is coming from, and I love that.

Continuing with the doodling and just watching what emerges. I'm beginning to thoroughly enjoy this strange turn of art events in my life.

Just doodling ... out came a proliferation of blue leaves.
