Chora 32 from my first fine art series Chora is featured on the cover of the poetry magazine Orbis this month.
Chora was exhibited in Tokyo just prior to lockdown. You can view the full series here.
Two poems from my forthcoming collection are featured also, Painted Angels and The Carpenter.
Orbis was one of the first journals to publish my poetry, so every time they publish new poems of mine it's a special occasion.
The new issue is available to order here.
