Creativity

If my newest love is coaching, my oldest love is art! I’m smitten with creativity - the way it works, the joy it brings, and the way it spreads more creativity in its wake. Its catching! It can be a little hard to get to a place of confident creative expression, of course, and that is where coaching is so helpful. Certainly it's taken me a lot of years to come to a place where I can really stand by my work, and my path in the world, Today, creativity takes an ever more important role in my life. I'm delighted to share some of my work here- I hope you enjoy it!

Forget what you think you may know of the medieval histories and prepare yourselves, as much as you can, for an evening of the truest fictions; dragons and flagons, assassins and shenanigans, lusts, thrusts and disgusts. Yes, it’s good to finally learn the truths of crusty peasants as we begin our Quest for the Cleft of Destiny’.'

This was a 2023 project drawing scenery for medieval comedy 'Krys'n'Dom and the Quest for the Cleft of Destiny,' written by Mark Manley, and Paul Denial with the assistance of Mick Rowe and Christine Hoyland, performed 24th March 2023. '

Harlequin Grey wishes he could fit in but he is just not made that way. However, all is not quite what it seems as he and his friends discover with the help of a marvellous moth.

This s a little fable about finding your creativity and sense of belonging on the inside, when it feel hard to fit in on the outside. It's a story for the young and the young at heart. Words and pictures are by me, and the musical accompaniment is called ‘Jeudi 15 (When You Become My Score), written and performed by the highly talented Suzie Shrubb.
