I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to Lyndie - I have learned to much and will keep exploring.  You have inspired me with your eternal curiosity and confidence that everything is possible.
I don't think I'll ever stop learning or discovering things but it's given me a great basis from which to explore my craft.

Another big thank you also go out to all the other people I have had the pleasure of working with this year. 

So this blog post marks the end of my year (better late then never) - I actually finished in early september but have been catching up on all the non-puppet making/performing side of things since then. I've enjoyed writing this blog and keeping track of the things I have been doing so I'm planning to keep adding things every now and then when something interesting happens over on the page marked Puppetry - Still Exploring.

In the mean time heres a little video of Lyndie talking about the puppets in the Little Angel Theatre's recent adaptation of Macbeth.

I've been sitting here taking stock of everything I've done so I'm just going to write it below for my own benefit to remember but you might find it interesting as well.

Puppets made:
Glove
Marionettes (plus a style Chinese control I'm getting my head round)
Rod
Shadows
Objects

Techniques:
carving
wood
fabric
foam
tights
mechanisms
hair
costumes
dying
painting
leather
moulding

Performing:
gloves
marionettes
rod
shadows
Table-top

There are probably things I have forgotten here but I'll add it as I think if it -but for now that's all for this page of the blog, but theres always room to keep exploring!  

Thank you for reading and sharing this time with me.
