Merging Emotion and Art Illustrated poetry merges language and visual art, creating a sensory experience that captures emotion. It evolves through history, inviting reflection by connecting viewers and readers through creative dialogue.

And somewhere
between word and colour
we find a little more
of what it means
to be human.

Midlife Lessons on Beauty and Acceptance Midlife encourages reflection on beauty, love, and letting go, fostering new awareness, deeper connections, and creative expression. This transformative phase embraces change, integration, and rediscovery of life's richness.

#Midlife changes how we see #beauty, #love, and #purpose. It invites us to let go of old stories and welcome the parts of ourselves we once set aside.

Art and Identity This illustrated poem explores the layered nature of womanhood, capturing how identity changes with time, place, and experience. Through art and poetry, it honours women’s voices and encourages us to recognise and celebrate every facet of ourselves. As part of Creative Bubbles By The Randoms, it adds to a growing collection of illustrated poetry where women, identity, and art come together in powerful expression.

A woman has never been just one thing. Too ambitious, too soft, too strong and the labels keep piling on.

Why Poetry Matters YOU’VE BEEN SINGING IT ALL ALONG You don’t have to call yourself a poetry lover to connect with it. In fact, many people who say they “don’t do poetry” already do, just not on the page. Think about it: you’re driving, or walking, or sitting on the bus. A song comes on. The lyrics kick in, and suddenly you’re singing along, perhaps because it’s catchy, but maybe because it's it’s true, it's you!.

You don’t have to love #poetry to feel it. A #lyric hits, a line lands and suddenly, it’s yours. This is about #music, #memory, and why #ModernPoetry isn’t what you learned in school.

#NationalCreativityDay On 30th May 2025, the UK will mark National Creativity Day. It was founded in 2018 by Hal Croasmun, a screenwriter and the founder of ScreenwritingU, an online screenwriting school. His aim was to recognise the value of creativity in all its forms in everyday life. The day was created as a response to how easily creative expression can be overlooked, especially in fast-paced, productivity-focused cultures.

#NationalCreativityDay is your chance to flex the creative muscles you think you don’t have. Draw a wonky line, write a sentence, snap a photo of something overlooked. Start small. It still counts.

Have fun and share below what you create between now and the weekend.

The Power of May May is a month of protest and activism, marked by historical events like Labour Day and the May Fourth Movement. It embodies a spirit of collective refusal, renewal, and defiance. From global marches to local rallies, May energises movements for change, illustrating the enduring connection between resistance and art, despite challenges and disillusionment.

From the cobbles of #Paris to the lawns of #Ohio, from Madrid’s plazas to the streets of Minneapolis, May is a time of collective refusal. A rhythm that pulses across countries and decades. #Protest is not only about speeches and slogans. #Art and #poetry have always been part of the story.

ABOUT I’ve loved art for as long as I can remember. I was born in the 60s and one of my earliest influences was watching Paint Along With Nancy on TV. Nancy Kominsky taught me, and countless others, how to mix colours, grid a face and find balance in a composition, all from the comfort of the living room. That was the start.

I've been meaning to update my About page for ages ..
