Although I created this image in 2007, and had titled it “Girls,” I didn’t fully realize what it meant until just this week. In the news, a husband kills his wife, by placing a plastic bag over her head, hangs her, and flees with the three children after countless please for help to local authorities. A father is convicted of keeping his daughter locked up as a sex slave for 24 years. Daughter now 42. Many females are enslaved, murdered, raped, tortured all over the world, and many more will remain faceless to us. Stop, think, and listen.

Even nuns crave the simple pleasure of icecream… and there is a rebel amoung them with a calyppo! I drew this after seeing a group of nuns buying icecream (and yes, one bought a calyppo) when i was on holiday in Queensland. There was something absolutely adorable about teh idea, and I simply HAD to get it down!

“See its face beneath the glass / It murmurs on the breeze / Like a long black Cadillac / It passes ‘neath the trees / What is it you’re waiting for? / Sweet love is on its knees / Go to sleep my one true love / And find your heart’s release…” David Gray – Nos Da Caraid

Tynemouth Priory was founded early in the 7th century. / In 800 the Danes plundered Tynemouth Priory. / Afterwards the monks strengthened the fortifications sufficiently to prevent / the Danes from succeeding when they attacked again in 832. / However, in 865 the church and monastery were destroyed by the Danes. / At the same time, the nuns of St Hilda, who had come there for safety, were massacred. The priory was again plundered by the Danes in 870. / / The priory was destroyed by the Danes in 875. / The small parish church of St Mary remained. / This Chapel is behind the Blue door. / When entering it is truly stepping back in time.
