Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year. In 2023, I will be marking my first full year in business. THANK YOU to everyone that has made this possible and keeping me in business. I will always be grateful that you put your trust in me with your art and design needs.

2023 also marks my first year with the Medical Missionaries of Mary, a team that I have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of. It was an honour to be a part of the new MMM events this year; including the MMM craft fair and taking part in the MMM "Steps for Hope" challenge - which we will we doing again this coming Lent!

Also thank you to all that bought my art, designed greetings cards, coasters, prints and bookmarks this year and to the Cottage Market, Academy Books and Five Good Things Cafe for the trade opportunities.
