An Update...

This post is a small update about what I have been doing in the last year. Hello everyone. It's been a while. How are you all doing? I thought that after a year of silence, I ought to explain. In March 2024, I left my job at the Atkinson, Southport, and started full time work in Preston. I now work in a lovely café, where I see squirrels every day, and walk along the Ribble. I am still applying for work in the heritage sector, because I refuse to give up my dream of working in a museum, but reality has kicked in, and I need to pay the bills.  So other than work, what else have been been doing? I am now a published author! In March, I published my first book of poetry, Winters Embrace. I started writing in December last year, and decided to just go for it. I am also working on my second book, which should be coming out soon! I was lucky enough to be asked to put my artwork in an exhibition called The Turning Point. It was incredible to be a part of this. I was fortunate enough to se...

Bolton Museum

This is a blog post about my trip to Bolton Museum (04/08/23) Bolton Museum and Art Gallery has probably one of the most impressive Egyptological collections I have ever seen. They have a decent amount of objects on display, and have one of the coolest rooms ever! (Don't worry, we'll get to that shortly.) Bolton Museum and Art Gallery, with an awesome Egyptology display I was delighted when I walked into the gallery, to be greeted by a small amount of ancient objects. And I mean this in the best way. Around this small space is modern history. A mixture of pop culture and Victorian collecting history. It was refreshing to read about Egyptomania in the 1970s, and so interesting to read about what the Egyptians experienced when the British came to Egypt from their prospective.  As I turned the corner, I saw a display that was just incredible. Information and interactives all on the walls, and glass case tunnels down the corridor. The way the objects have been separated by theme an...

Exciting Announcement!

Hello! This is more of an unusual post, as this is just a quick announcement, about a small advancement of my work. So here it is... I am officially on Etsy! What you will see when you head over to my Etsy! One of Tutankhamun's Senet boards I have a couple of projects in the works that will hopefully, soon, be put on the page. So, this is the first! Available is a printout Senet board. Senet was a game played by everyone in ancient Egypt, whether you were a craftsman or a pharaoh, anyone could play. Even the pharaoh, Tutankhamun, had four boards in his tomb. So what will come when you order one? A printout of the board itself, the rules, coloured counters and  one dice. The printout was designed by me, and the rules have been created by researching the games, and working out the best and easiest way. The exact rules of Senet are unknown, as only fragments of papyri have been found. One of the most awesome scenes depicted of someone playing Senet, is of the Princess Nefertari. Thoug...
