I'm back in Belfast again, and I'll be painting at Hit The North this bank holiday weekend. I'll be on the Dublin road, come say hi. (This poster makes me think I should have a cool name for my street art/ mural work. If you have any ideas LMK 🙃) @seedheadarts @daisychaininc #HTN26

📚 Two for Tuesday 📚 I'm sharing two empowering books published by @littletigerbooks today. They have both had a big impact on both of my girls. Both books deserve to be celebrated! 📢 It's A Brave Young World ✍️ Anu Adebogun 🎨 @soofiya & Lila Cruz @colorlilas 📕 @littletigerbooks A Guide to Life, Relationships and Speaking Up Growing up in today's world has its challenges and this book has lots of answers to questions you might need to find reassurance and be empowered by the knowledge that you are enough. I really wish this was around when I was young and I feel so grateful that books like this are now available to the new generation. Aimed at 11+ years Swipe across to see inside 👀 📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟📢🌟 🌟 Shoot for the Stars ✍️ @daniellebrownmbe 🎨 @jaydeperkin @tienda.filigrana 📘 @littletigerbooks Let's dive into the world of sport together! 'Shoot for the Stars is a crash course in overcoming the obstacles that keep girls from achieving sporting success.' My girls both swim for a club and I have recommended this book to so many of the parents and coaches as an inspirational tool and all the girls who are approaching puberty and beyond. Also for the challenges and cristism that they come up against in the sporting world around them. Even if sport isn't their thing there is so much that can be gained from reading the inspirational stories from across the globe. There is something for everyone to gain from reading.

Cracking open the first slice of Backhand. Featuring works from @screen__burn @javi.tanke @eh_art_ley @jaydeperkin @rhysdoodles A proper mixed basket of artists landing at Centrespace this Easter weekend. Come get stuck in, have a nose, and see what hatches. Backhand is shaping up to be eggs-actly the kind of show you don’t want to miss. See you over the bank holiday. #BackhandBristol #Centrespace #BristolArt #Exhibition #ArtShow EasterWeekend CrackingArt BristolArtists

SHOOT FOR THE STARS ✨✨✨ written by @daniellebrownmbe / published by @littletigerbooks / illustrated by myself and @gabuleta ✨✨✨ I’ve been rubbish at posting about it so far (life’s been busy) but I’m going to try to remember to post up some more of the illustrations I made for this brilliant book. ✨✨ As someone who only learned to enjoy sports as an adult (i absolutely hated PE at school 😅) this book is super valuable & empowering resource, challenging the negative ideas around sport that so many of us grew up with... i really think it will help to create a more positive, inclusive and confidence-building view of movement for young folks growing-up today. ✨✨✨ Massive thanks to everyone involved - it’s been such a joy to be part of this project. Very proud to see SHOOT FOR THE STARS out in the world 💫 ✨✨✨
