I have been on my own personal journey and have been following the Druid path for a number of years with the guidance of The British Druid Order and I am now honoured to have completed the druid course. The process has shown me direction and has re-ignited my passion and inspired my artwork. Druidry, Folklore , Myths, Legends & of course the mysterious Sidhe & their magical realms, are the inspiration for the artwork I am creating today. During my personal journey it became clear that I was to change not just my name/ identity to ‘The Sea Crow” but the very core of the way I create my art. I create artwork that tells a story. The unique hand painted items are waiting to connect their energy /message/ story to that one person who sees this!
I have a BA Hons in Fine Art and studied at Bath Spa University. I then continued my education and achieved a PGCE and became an Art teacher. I am blessed to be able to create my artwork in a cabin overlooking the sea and I use this space to not only create but as a sacred space for my spiritual studies.
Crow Knowledge
Stand before the light, invite darkness
Your very presence begets shadows
To let the light touch self is to know
How bodies form night shapes also.
Become crow, become evening
Wing and feather, beak and claw
Become midnight manifest at noon
Step into your shadow, inhabit it.
Be the absence that is presence
Covering to reveal enchantments
Stand between stone and sky
To become stone and sky.
There are infinite forms to wear
All the stories in the world
Willing to enter your being
Weave richness into your soul.
It was not enough to write one tale
So many voices on the sea breeze
A tide of tales, a torrent calling
To be heard, known, embodied.
Come to the shore, let the crows
Teach you to be your other self
Your many imaginable lives
Breathing together in one skin.
