I’m thrilled to share that my work will be featured at the Angel Field Festival at Capstone Theatre, Hope University Creative Campus, later this month. I’m busy preparing for the installation this Thursday, making sure everything is just right. Today, an exciting package arrived - posters showing work in progress that will accompany the exhibition. It’s all coming together 😊 Stay tuned for more updates. #hopeuniversity #creativecampus #exhibition #workinprogress #capstonetheatre #angelfieldfestival #flotsam_fables

A few weeks ago, a very dear friend’s wonderful daughter came of age, and I had the honor of making her this little doll to celebrate the milestone. Inside, she carries a message for the child, along with marigold for confidence, lemon balm for success, and eucalyptus for protection and good health. I also placed a moonstone for a healthy cycle and rose quartz over her heart for love and harmony in her relationships. Together with her mother and sisters, we marked the occasion with a beautiful ceremony - flower crowns, blessings, and fire. It was a magical evening. ✨🌿🔥 #comingofage #ceremony #flotsam_fables

Many moons ago, I created Matilda the Mammoth, and she went on to bring joy to so many—stomping proudly through the Manchester Day Parade with @walktheplankarts before finding her forever home in the stunning landscapes of Shropshire. There, she watched over the Stone Age land of @outback2basics with @men_2_be_ and @naomiwalmsley82, delighting visitors and standing strong against the elements. But time and the English weather are relentless, and yesterday, I learned that Matilda had finally succumbed. She was given a beautiful send-off, marking the end of her journey. Farewell, Matilda—you were truly mammoth in spirit. #stoneage #mammoth #largescalepuppets #walktheplank #outback2basics #craftywoman #men2be #flotsam_fables
