ABOUT
EXPLORing, DRAWING
I draw cartoons, narrative art & illustrations and run drawing and creative workshops.
I manage the Workers Gallery in South Wales, where I also have my studio and undertake my sports history and commemoration research.
GRAPHIC NOVEL IN PROGRESS
My academic research considers commemoration, particularly that of my ancestor Duncan Edwards.
He was a Busby Babe, Manchester United and England footballer who died after being injured in the 1958 Munich Air Disaster.
I am developing my PhD & new research into a series of zines and a graphic novel. In late 2021 I received an Early Career Research Grant from the British Society of Sports History (BSSH) to help support my research.
In 2023 this work was further supported by an artist bursary from the Artists Information Company.

CYMRU FOOTBALL
I set myself a challenge in late 2022 to draw a comic, comic strip or cartoon every day from - with the focus being 'Cymru/Wales and the World Cup'. I drew 80 images inspired by fans, players and staff of the welsh teams- their stories, memories and hopes. I also ran drawing workshops in youth clubs and the Workers Gallery for families - creating a collaborative exhibition I tweeted my drawings daily. It was just for fun. I'm a regular contributor of comics for International Wales fanzine. I continue creating Cymru-inspired drawings.
In 2023 I was commissioned by Football Association Wales to produce a design for a panel on the new Women's FAW Cup -Bute Energy Welsh Cup.
ACTIVISM
I advocate for artist-led, pedal-powered, sustainable regeneration. Being involved in successful campaigns to save art spaces and services I created and continue to manage the WORKERS GALLERY (est 2014) with my husband - artist Chris Williams. The Gallery embodies my belief that being creative and experiencing art can inspire positive economic, cultural and social change.
When enraged I create political art and cartoons that I share on X formally known as twitter.
