On Tuesday afternoon, I took down the installation at Chester Cathedral. Really, it was a case of just putting them all in boxes, trying to keep colours together.  Still a back breaking job though. I noticed that some were starting […]

I was very pleased to be awarded the SANE Creative Awards Scheme this year, which is for my new series of Monaco paintings. These paintings address the juxtaposition of life experiences as a carer, being denied any income for caring, […]
