Live participatory painting for the launch of the fabulous FIO. Beautiful weather, lovely people and an organisation with inclusivity and creativity at it’s core. What could be better?

Dragonflies are an animal symbolic of change, self-discovery and reaching your full potential. The Mayan Goddess of the moon (a symbol of our creative abilities as women) made her grandfather angry by marrying the sun… he killed her, and hundreds of dragonflies swarmed and sang to resurrect her. Fio has the ability to transform people’s lives through creativity, and I used the story as inspiration for this piece. Find out more about Fio here: Belong. Create. Grow.

Based on a poem by Hilary Griffiths:

‘A copper beech tree
looked majestically on me
and my sorrow
and made me believe
in tomorrow.’

This piece is in the courtyard next to the new art gallery in Llandough Hospital (opening soon, watch this space…)believe tree

 

I loved painting at this fantastic house for boys with ASD in the Brecon Beacons. Wonderful staff and such a beautiful setting…ty-bronllys
