A group of Morris dancers in civvies, including me, smiling and waving their sticks at the camera

#FMSPAD 21/8 Feels like home: The end of a really good Order Of The Geep good practice.
I love this group; I have definitely found (more of) my people #FMS_Feels25

For my next gig, I have the honour of supporting my hugely talented, dear friend Rhys Wynne-Jones with the amazing Lottee Brown and the energetic Order of the Geep. Come join us #cornwall #penzance #lovepenzenace #lovepz #music #livemusic #gig #event #eplaunch #cornishmusicians

The Order of the Geep alternative Morris had a fun of very hot dance out at the Praze and Beeble show, (our home turf) I didn’t get many clips of us dancing apart from the final dance but did capture another stick laid to rest and the lovely Baby Geep #cornwall #morrisdancers #bordermorris #folk

Fell of this platform for a bit, but here’s a fantastic shot of me at #Brixhampiratefestival by Scarlett Photography! #pirate #steampunk #steampunkpirate #gurdybird I’ll be catching up on here soon

My school boyfriend told his gran I was a necrophiliac, meant narcoleptic, I am neither, I’m just really really tired all the time and fell asleep in class a bit 🤣relating hard at this!

Practice day with The Order of the Geep, Alternative Morris, one more practice before we are out in the wild for the first of our dance outs this year! #moreisdancing #morris #dance #practice #bordermorris

Mother and I dropped into #Falmouth to drop some of my work into the mighty Sailors Jail this week! Restock and new pieces are available. We also had chai/coffee and cake in Cribbs. #gratitude #art #cornishart #Cornishgallery #cornwall #sailorsjail #illustration #motherdaughterday

This looks SO GOOD, and very much what I’m all about! Can’t wait to start it! #readingpile #book #music #misrule #folkmusic #roughmusic #booksky

New billboard in Clacton, Farage’s constituency. He’s still the UK’s #1 grifter. No other MP takes more from second jobs while being employed to represent their constituents in Parliament

Today also involved some playing with a surreal new design, inspired by a fever dream when I was ill a month or so back #tarrawayhoofpress #linoprint #illustration #popsurrealism #lowbrowart #ink #cornishartist

It’s a dance Choreographed by Rhys Wynne-Jones, but we are adding some traditional ones to the repertoire, I have 2 tunes to do/remix so I better get a wriggle on 😬

Fabulous practice with the Geeps yesterday featuring a new member rescued by one of the squires #theorderofthegeep #alternativemorris #morris #morrisdancing

Fabulous practice yesterday with The Order of the Geep Alternative Morris, 2 new dances learned and now the challenge to write/remix some music to accompany some of our dances! #morrisdancing #orderofthegeep #alternativemorris #morris #folk
