Since You’re Wondering

  • With Shaking Hands is a poetry and visual art platform created by a writer and artist based in the Lake District. It’s a space for work that refuses to be quiet, exploring feminism, motherhood, rage, political awakening and the world as it actually is.

  • Poetry that is raw, honest and unapologetic, and bold visual art with feminist and political themes. The two feed each other. Everything made here comes from a place of feeling too much and needing somewhere to put it.

  • Windermere, in the Lake District. The landscape is never far from the work, even when the work is angry.

  • Yes. Prints of my work are available through the shop. New work added regularly so check back.

  • Giclée printed on Enhanced Matte fine art paprt, 200gsm, with archival inks rated to last over 100 years. Museum-standard. Made to be framed and lived with.

  • No, prints are sold unframed so you can choose a frame that suits your space. They come in standard sizes (10×8 and 16×12) so off-the-shelf frames fit.

  • Your order ships worldwide, but depending on where you live, your country may charge import duty or tax when it arrives. That bit’s out of my hands, sorry. Worth knowing before you order.

  • Honestly? It depends. I’m a mother, I have a life, and creativity doesn’t always run to a schedule. What I can tell you is that rage and inspiration are both in good supply right now, so there’s always something brewing. Follow on Instagram or check the Journal to catch it when it lands.
