Black Swan Open

I’m delighted that this work My Dog keeps watch when I pray has been selected for The Black Swan Open in Frome, this autumn…

It was inspired by relationships I’ve had with the dogs in my life, and visits to Norcia in Italy, where I’ve spent time in churches , where Benedictine monks pray and sing bending from the waist in supplication and humility.
