Moleskine Pages - If Only...

Nothin was ever hidden.

Moleskine Pages - Don't Forget Me

One last thing before leaving...Don't forget me...

Moleskine Pages - Popeye

"Can I watch cartoons please?". I didn't want his sweat to get on my new dress. Even with his spinach, Popeye couldn't save me.

Rabbit's ears-Collage

Rabbit's Ears, a collage on a used envelope.

Old Work

Clearing out my studio yesterday, I came across a whole bunch of stuff I have never scanned or shown. Most of it went straight in the trash but a few pieces survived the cull and these are some of them.

Moleskine Pages- The Lesson For Today

The lesson for today is; stay away from crazy eyes and those that seek to hammer nails into my head. When it gets too much, I sing the blues.

Moleskine Pages- The Elephant In The Room

He said he'd never been in love; that lust was as far as he'd got. She said she despised men like him but didn't move away. He checked out her menu but opted for a takeaway on the way home. She'd worn her lucky knickers for nothing. He missed out.

Moleskine Pages- Songbirds

The idea of songbirds singing out of tune was hard to bear. I could see they were trying. Their obvious effort was both touching and shameful. The one thing they were born to do! I am not a songbird and my purpose is as yet undetermined.

Moleskine Pages- Magic

He'd lick her feet to activate the magic. She kept herself hovering above the ground...trying to escape her shell before it smashed to pieces. Her magic was of the mundane kind usually seen at children's parties. No one told her she was crap, no one told her she was good.

Moleskine Pages- Red Biscuit Tin

We had some unused wishes in a light- weight, red biscuit tin. It felt good to know that...secure...

Moleskine Pages- The Choir

Angels could never persuade me of their benevolence.

Moleskine Pages- We Sing In Tongues

Victor sat in a corner making a woman of clay: saying " I am Alpha and Omega.
I shall come to judge the earth one day."
We sing in tongues and speak for all.

Moleskine Pages- Hey Mickey

Rejected Commissions

Two pieces that were commissioned (by the same person) but never collected.

Moleskine Pages- I Couldn't Forget

I couldn't forget until I completely remembered, so I chose to live with my nightmares.

Moleskine Pages- Maternal Bonds

' It was you...You did what you promised you'd never do...You got old, and you died...But I learned early on that your word meant nothing and maternal bonds were like me, a nuisance.'

Moleskine Pages- A Gentle Prayer

'Jack's job was to remove dead body parts from the world.'
If it's a hand, shake it. If it has a face try and wake it. If you spot any hair then say a gentle prayer.

Moleskine Pages - Accessorize

'From an early age, I had to resist an urge to smash her face in. Flies swarmed over the remains of our relationship. We couldn't see them coming'.

Moleskine Pages - Hello

'They all gathered on the shore to see him off as he set off to seek his fortune.'

Moleskine Pages - The Shadow Of Death

' They could never know how close they walked to the shadow of death. A breath in any direction would give it all away.'
