Throughout the Coronavirus Pandemic I have been shielding at home due to underlying health problems. During this time I have created a patio garden full of flowers and mosaics that has become home to lots of insects, including some Painted Lady butterflies that I have watched develop from caterpillars. The garden has been a good distraction from the sad and frightening events unfolding around us - a peaceful sanctuary
My feather mosaics were inspired by the Emily Dickinson quote:
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops - at all
