Helen drinks a lot of tea, therefore extensive use of teastaining is utilised in order to fool people that the illustrations are created on mystical and long lost scrolls.

Poetatoes (sic) are good for the heart!

Turquoise is the artist's favourite colour.

Twinkles of inspiration come from Daniel Chang, Sara Fenelli, greek ceramics, Gary Baseman, Heather Lloyd, dreams, waking life, existential wanderings through galleries, unspoken conversations with God, and many artists and illustrators that appear in Borges style bibliodyssies....
You never know where inspiration will come from next!
