results - court case

As a Musician I occasionally busk, and I got special permission to do this so as to showcase my talent.

Last September, whilst busking in Preston, I was attacked and mugged.

Just last week the offenders changed their plea to guilty and were sentenced today. The male got six yrs and the female got four years.

I am so relieved and pleased.

What a result!

congratulations! Your Majesty

Congratulations Your Majesty

The Queen's accession is today and it's 65 years!

In honour of this tremendous event I've posted a photo of me donning my tiara as part of a Dance (site-specific and theatre based work) now part of my repertoire, 'A Festive dance'. It is normally danced to the theme of the film, The Snowman.

Merry Christmas

I sometimes perform and fund raise for charity.

artwork

As some of you may know I am a Performance Artist (specialising in Dance and Music), however, for those of you that don't know, I am also a Visual Artist.

Inspired by my first exhibit at The Harris Open museum in Preston recently (now showing and running until the 7th of Jan.) I have started to create some more artwork of a craft nature.

Here is an example of my first set of hand-made envelopes.

I really like this colour as I feel they can be used for a card of any occasion.

I like to recycle/upcycle. I made these particular envelopes for some Christmas cards that I had left over from the prior year in excellent condition and I loved them so much I designed templates for more/new envelopes.

If you find you're in a similar position I hope this article will inspire you. Or, maybe you would prefer to commission me to make some for you to order.
