Merry Gothmas!

This year I decided to do something I have never done before, make my own Christmas cards!
I watched Ryan Adam's 'Night Sweats' (click heading to see it!) and the lassie (Blaphazar) gave me a fab idea of making goth xmas cards, so I did. The first one was based on her and the rest of the ideas made me laugh out loud at my own drawings-this does not happen very often! So I thought I was I was on to a winner, they got a good reception on facebook so I made more and more and have orders now! Which is nice, I also made some 'folkey' and bear ones too! I might make some birthday cards too in the new year!
Xmas cards now Stocked in Ocean Gallery, Swansea, and Swansea Print Workshop.

Christmas down at The Brunswick!

It's that time of year again!
Christmas exhibition time that is, my next show is in the lovable Swansea pub The Brunswick. Opening next week. there are many wonderful visual delights on show and many artists there showing their works! This shall sadly be Rosie Scribblah's last exhibition as curator there, she has supported me many a time and given me several lovely shows, I wish her all the very best artyness in the future!

From one blog, to another blog: 'Going,going not quite gone!'

I work as an artist at Swansea Print Workshop, where I run courses and teach on various projects, the most recent project I have been involved with was aimed at young people, encouraging them to become involved with volunteering. Swansea Print Workshop is a voluntary organisation and relies on volunteers to keep it running.
We received funding from Gwir Vol, to assist us to encourage young people to create a printmaking project, with two young volunteers working on the administritive side of things: we have a project assistant and a marketing, events assistant and four community artists providing workshops in community settings to a wide range of people. You can find out more about their activities at their blog:
