People Picking Pages

Yesterday I launched the 'Buy Pilgrimage Page' on my blog. 7 Page Pilgrims have joined me already with pages going to different place in the UK as well as Holland and Thailand ... I am colouring each number as they get bought ... I wonder where all the other pages will pilgrim around the planet. 

I find it interesting to see what pages are selling first ~ I wonder what will happen in the middle couple of weeks! Yikes!

Creating In Truth

Today I am preparing for the launch of a new project, as well as updating my on-line presence ... this blog included.

I finished my MA in Illustration (cross pathways with Performance Art) at The Arts University Bournemouth last year and this picture below is from a performance presentation I was experimenting with. I just came across it again today and it reminded me of the journey that I am on at the moment. The journey into truth and living my authenticity. 

Part of taking time out this year has been to create space for my system after many years of intensive creative outpouring; to allow myself space to return to the source place of true creation. I have been pealing back the layers of my conditioning and looking deep into the patterns within my self. It has been an incredible journey so far. A journey that I realise started many many years ago when I first started on the path to learning about who I really am. Needless to say, art has played a profound part in this journey. And it continues...

... New work is emerging as I keep checking in with myself, 'Does this feel good? Does this feel right? What is my art work showing me? The journey is very important, so is the questioning as well as the reflection into the mirror of wisdom. With this all in the mix, new inspiration is coming. I have started writing my first novel, a new collection of illustrations is forming and a new project on the horizon.  

And so I relaunch my blog after a dormant time and look forward to the unveiling and unfurling of this new path of creation that is inviting me to authentically step into it, once again. 

Deep Diver Rhiannon

From a new collection of Goddess illustrations

She dives deep into the depths of the ocean, to find the pearls, 

choosing illumination and resurfacing in 

authentic transformation of the divine feminine power.

Witnessing these old dark, heavy wings falling from my body
Finding a way in the foggy programming of yesterdays schedule
Getting ready to leave, to take flight with new golden wings 
A gift from the pheonix in exchange for the shroud of solace
To fly high above the sunken clouds
Feeling lightness emerging softly
Letting go of trying to 'be' anything
Relaxing into the reality of just 'being'
Releasing the need to create
Anything other than space
For my heart to breathe
In truth, my truth
As it was always intended

New Website & New Work

Over the last 2 years I have been doing an MA in Illustration, crossing pathways with Contemporary Performance. Illustration and performance are both important parts of my practice as an artist and I have been exploring how I can blur the edges between these disciplines.

I have been looking deeply inward into what my work means to me and how I produce my art for public audiences. This has given me a greater understanding of who I am and what my work is about.

So I am taking this opportunity to share my work more publicly again for the first time and am pleased to be launching my new website soon. In the mean time here are a few images from current projects.

Logo Update

I thought it was about time for an image update.

I have been using this Hazel logo for over 10 years so it strongly represents my brand, however, like with everything, it is always good to have a refresh and a make-over.

Someone suggested putting it in a circle, and after some playing around I finally chose this one below.

Feeling happy with the new spruced look.
