Mae'n rhyfedd sut mae pethau'n troi allan weithiau. Rwyf, ar adegau, wedi cael syniad ar gyfer prosiect neu ddigwyddiad, yna symud ymlaen â'r cynllun ac mae popeth wedi dilyn mwy neu lai y llwybr disgwyliedig.

In my own revised drawing, I show the irrepressible ‘awen’ (poetic muse) escaping from her sack…
