I’ve put down the paintbrush for a while and picked up the scissors again ✂️ A sample of collages I’ve made over the years, fiddly little critters #collage #paperworks #smallworks

A brief sojourn into folklore and myths for a submission. When I was little my eldest sister told me if you put a leaf of Hydrocotyle vulgaris under your pillow the fairies would bring cake - CAKE! They did, my sister liked cake and the fairies just left some crumbs #folklore #fairytales #cake #pens

Where I was born and lived there had been a holy well called Lady’s Well (Laywell) with a lost reciprocating spring recorded in the 17th century by the Royal Society Philosophical Transactions. Research begins for ‘EDEN IN AN URBAN STREAM’ With illustrations by Laura Page #brixham #heritage #poetry
