I also design and create willow sculptures and lead creative workshops in Puppetry and Lantern making.

I have lived on the North Coast of Cornwall since 1979, working at the Valley Caravan Park and helped launch the first ‘Surf to Save’ environmental surf festivals of the 80’s at Polzeath...when it was still a relatively sleepy seaside village!

In 1989 I embarked upon a parallel life as ‘Professor Goodvibes!’ the travelling Punch & Judy Showman and was invited to join the ‘College of Professors’ helping to promote and uphold the traditions and skills of the art. 

I love to create- it keeps me sane (ish)- props, scenery, gadgets.. during autumns and winters busily devising and building new processional sculptures/images from willow and bamboo and also running workshops for schools, community groups and institutions. 

I am a founding member of ARTiculate Collective celebratory arts group, an eclectic band of artists with a flair for creativity and fun.

My work takes me to community festivals, pageants, celebrations and events across the UK and internationally...even to the fabled ‘fortunate Isles’ of Scilly where I have performed annually since 1995.
