The culture and history of Wales is not something taught in school, even in Wales and yet it surrounds us. I am fascinated by ancient traditions and culture. These are made all the more fascinating by their origins being shrouded in mystery. Whenever I can, I find evidence of our oldest creations and practices and of course, I draw them. Here is a selection of my drawing made over the years on a range of subjects.

Inspired by drawings of the taxidermy collection at Swansea Museum. I have given these antique artifacts a modern twist by combining them with images of rubbish – old fruit nets, bubble wrap and plastic – highlighting the problem of human pollution and how it affects wildlife. I also combine some of the images with snippets of text of things my Nana used to say. She used to take me to Swansea Museum a lot when I was little and I could hear her voice in the back of my head as I was sitting and drawing the birds and bugs.
