Wonderful news that my Magical Manga workshops are all fully booked! ✨️🙌✨️

Would so highly recommend this book to any teachers, parents or crafty folk. Such an invaluable and inspiring resource. And even though it’s aimed at grown-ups working with kids, my son was able to follow the instructions and create stuff on his own aged maybe around 10.

Stuck indoors feeling miserable because of the stupid, stupid rain? Here's an idea: cheer yourself up by buying some #zines at colossive.com

That way, you'll be giving us something to do to take our minds off the god-awful weather, too... Everyone's a winner! 😀🐱

A glorious day to visit my local graveyard. So many crocuses and snowdrops. 🤍

Roxy is 13 today! 🤎

She is truly amazing, especially with all she experienced last year. In my newsletters I wrote about her health and treatment. Happy to say Roxy continues to enjoy a good life and she always brings so much joy to her humans.

This evening, I've been hearing a lot of fox cries. I wonder if it's fighting or mating related, but it's wonderfully chilling to hear their shrieking.

My pleasure. It's great seeing artists flourish, and so it's lovely seeing your work. 😊

The Boy and The Heron came out the year before I think? I didn't buy a programme and can't remember if they performed music from that film or not, but the use of taiko drums for The Demon King, Princess Mononoke was phenomenal! I hope Hisaishi comes back so you can see him perform live.

After just seeing KAMIJO pop up on my FB feed, I felt I should have included that on my list, mainly for the reason that photography and video recording was strictly prohibited. It was amazing to experience a concert smartphone free!

Many congratulations! 😊
