Firstly I need to wish everyone who has taken a keen interest in my work a Happy New Year. I am humbled by all the support I receive towards my practice.
2013 is set to be another active year of creativity for me. It kicks off with a new Tooth&Clawr reading group session in response to CHAPTER galleries latest exhibition by Joanne Tatham and Tom O'Sullivan: A tool for the making of signs. I have a particular fondness for this show as I was commissioned at the end of last year to make a sound recording for the sculpture. I had to recite an abstract poem by painter and modernist poet David Jones. The poem titled 'The Hunt' is filled with beautiful imagery, and lilts between Welsh language and English. My voice booms from the mouth of the large black and white dragon in the gallery. It makes me smile, as I am so ridiculously Welsh, dragging my cultural identity with me where ever I go. This piece of work takes a humorous look at Welsh National identity.

I will then be off to Cornwall in March to hold a Wormery event. I will be there as part of Tooth&Clawr and will be offering the texts we read for the last session. CHAPTER galleries last exhibition 'The future's not what it used to be' will be opening at the Cornish Galleries. I will also be presenting my own work offsite, and am generating a lot of exciting ideas for this work.

The first quarter of the year is already looking good, and I am excited by my new projects. In the meantime I will continue to visit the psychics and gather as much clarity as I can about my future.....
