Blackbird

A two page A6 book about the blackbird.

I have been thinking about birds a lot and think that their inspiration is probably unlimited!

The poems is a sombre reflection on my desire to reconnect with my mother who died 12 years ago.

Women in Art

A fan book featuring negative quotes about women artists and their work.

This book came about after digging through some old sketchbooks and finding the list of quotes, which were part of another, unresolved project.

It fired up my inner feminist and I do feel that more ideas could come from this book.
