When A Blog Becomes An Almighty Headache
It is that dreaded moment when you click the button to update the system and your Blog disintegrates before your eyes! Any number of reboots, restores and re-installs continue to leave your Blog Page blank with an ugly system error pasted across it. This has been my headache. I've ranted, raved and finally resigned myself to bringing all my posts back over one by one to a simpler system, one that will hopefully withstand updates in future.
Twitter Art Exhibition, Stratford Upon Avon 2017
Twitter Art Exhibition Stratford Upon Avon 2017
The Twitter Art Exhibition is in the UK this year, and launches in Stratord Upon Avon on 1st April. This will be my fourth year donating a postcard size piece of original art for a charitable cause.

Artists Group Show at The Workers Gallery and Workshop, Ynyshir, South Wales 2017
The show of Gallery Artists work and their work in progress is already up and running at the Workers Gallery and Workshop.

My focus for now is water from nature and the life I can see in a single drop.
Art Installation - In Our Minds There Are Many Rooms
Early 2017, I was invited to take part in the creation of four art installations across North Wales and was sent a box. With the box, we were asked to make something that represented the state or contents of our minds. Tim Lliffe is the lead artist, and in collaboration with MOMA, Machynlleth and Disability Arts Cymru, an arts council award was given to carry out the project which will hopefully involve 1000 creatives.

Vic Selby, Author And My Father
There are times in life that are hard to bear and this has been one of the toughest. My father passed away just before Christmas with most of his family around him. It was expected, though not nearly quite so soon, but no matter how much I thought I was prepared, it wrenched my soul to see the light in his eyes slip away. He will always have a piece of my heart.

Alone In The Universe - Open Art Exhibition Winter 2016 At The Workers Gallery, Ynyshir
This is a themed group art exhibition held at the Workers Gallery and Workshops. It is based on a poem "Alone In The Universe" by Mike Church. The launch event was a huge success crossing the boundaries of several art forms from poetry and music to the visual creations inspired by Mike's poem.
Cynon Valley Museum Winter Open Art Exhibition 2016
Cynon Valley Museum was a casualty in the cuts to spending, but community people power put it back on the map. I'm so pleased because not only does it have a great little museum of local interest, it has a lovely gallery space.
