Mappa Mundi (napkin of the world) - a two day map making workshop with Robyn (buttered toast) Finlay and Claire Wildish

Coinciding with my current exhibition “Absence” at Hahndorf Academy I recently ran paper making and book making workshops, I had so much fun I nearly forgot to take any photos! Exhibition runs until the 25th of March so if you haven’t seen it yet.....

My bay tree is out of control, so I threw a big pile of leaves into my aluminium dye pot put it on to boil with a ball of white wool to see what would result. I had read that bay leaves make a yellow, but it is very subtle. I will continue to reduce the dye to see what will come of it.

been trying my hand at some screen prints. If you think you might like one let me know in the comments and I will make it happen.

there is a mythological old hag with no arms or head. She sees through her breasts and speaks from her vulva, Her strength is in her ability to cause those in distress to laugh, a loud healing belly laugh, she does this by telling rude stories and dances
