Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted.

Yesterday I caught a squirrel hanging off my neighbours bird feeder! It made me laugh. Then I started this….. it’s a work in progress! #crieff #perthshire #redsquirrel #scotland #artist #pastel #drawing. Thinking of running classes in sketching wildlife over the summer!

It’s a fire sale…

This year, I came across a newspaper from 1818 which is called ‘Western Star & Glasgow Weekly Packet’. Someone had packed it into an old sketchbook of pastel paper for safekeeping. Being from Glasgow, it is really fascinating to read about the history of Glasgow and it’s colonial past #glasgow

Here’s my lazy eyed robot! A few technical challenges along the way but getting there!!!! #arduino #prusa #makerspace #innovation #designmake #scotland #21stcenturyGlasgowGirl

There is something fascinating in the way wool transforms into felt through needle felting. The texture, control and forms that can be achieved are so satisfying! no pre planning required, just see where the journey takes you #felt #wool #craft #scotland #glasgowgirl #make #mindfulness

Art Deco cinema which I made out of cake with my good friend Tracey, it is the Birks Cinema in Aberfeldy. They ate the cinema in the cinema! Literally a case of art eating itself! #cake #glutenfree #artdeco #architecture #perthshire #artist #cinema

Glasgow tenement brooch in silver, from a series at architecture inspired pieces from my Glasgow home. Happy memories #glasgow #tenement #silversmith #jeweller #design #crafts

Small experimental panel with handmade copper panel at the centre. I still plan to do more of this kind of thing as I want to combine my skill base and use metal patination to add colour to the copper. One day I will have the time to do it! #glasgowgirl

Stained glass window, St John Vianney Church in Alva which I designed, built and installed a number of years ago. #stainedglass #commission #artist #religious #alva #design #glasgowgirl #glass #glassartist

Kinetic wristpiece made in silver and silver gilt. This was part of my degree show work many years ago, but I am currently working on a more lightweight range of designs that would be for daily wear. #silver #jewellery #designer #gold #handmade #silversmith #craft #glasgowgirl #glasgow

Leaded glass window I designed, built and installed in a Georgian listed villa, Blackheath, London some years ago for a family home. #stainedglass #leadedglass #artist #maker #designer #commision #georgian #glasgowgirl #craft #designer #interiors #interiordesign

Some stained glass panels painted in enamel, these are based on my wildflower walks around Perthshire where I live. Nature never fails to amaze me.

Thought I might share some copper handmade tiles I created for a project a wee while ago. Created in the style of George Walton for a listed building commission.
