Mum & Art of Note
Today is the anniversary of Mum’s death. She died when I was 10. I went to a ballet thing while she sat at home, at the end of hope & when I came back she gave me a little handpainted trivet with a ballet dancer on it. Later that night she was taken to hospital for the last time 🧵

Mum’s death notice at Bretby Crematorium. Featuring the midwive’s crest - more painting and calligraphy I was inspired by, the dna of a lot of my art is swathed in sadness

It reads:

Clark, Pamela Christine SRN SCM
Constantly loved and always remembered
By her husband.
Children, family and friends:
Lived and worked by her midwives motto
"Life is the gift of God." Called to higher service.

Don't make me tap the Robert Pattinson quote, Leto.

“I always say about people who do method acting, you only ever see people do the method when they’re playing an assholes,” Pattinson said in an interiew with Variety in November. “You never see someone being lovely to everyone while they’re really deep in character.”

A rather grand kitty drawn on a libretto page from my late mother’s collection - La Belle Helene is about Helen of Troy so I also used Poppies of Troy as an embellishment

Pink Champagne flamingo print being hand finished with gold ink. Original was drawn on the Bird of Beauty page from my late mother’s Pink Champagne libretto - transforming something old, sad, and neglected into something more beautiful and joyful to celebrate my art, and her memory

You gotta give ‘em hop.

A tweet from the Anonymous account says, “Make sure the dude in the frog costume in Portland knows he's an icon.” The image is a stylized poster of a frog wearing a stars-and-stripes scarf with the word “HOP” below, in the style of the Obama “HOPE” poster.

Feeling sad, no-one 'deserves' customers or orders, but even some taking a look at the link from time to time would be nice.

Perhaps I'm just wasting my time :(

I kind of drew and wrote this for myself when I was going through it. Gently coaxing myself to keep moving forwards… if you’re going through hell, keep going my loves… #WMHD2025 #mentalhealth #keepgoing #stay

Just keep going
You’re not alone. the rabbit said
Although this night is long.
You may feel lost and tired and sad
And that it's all gone arong.
But stars are shining in the sky.
The moon is glowing too.
And with the gentle light they bring.
I’ll help you struggle through.
