ABOUT ME

I am a multidisciplinary artist with hand made processes and small scale production at the heart of what I do. I publish sustainably made greetings cards & tea towels and make one-off, hand printed cushions made from gorgeous linen upholstery waste that I source on my doorstep. My inspiration is all around me from the beautiful architecture on my doorstep, to the wonderful trees, creature and nature that I see when I am walking or riding my bike. I use papercutting, collage and stencilling to make hand made originals that encapsulate a sense of connection to English landscapes and architecture.

Experience & Qualifications

I have a wide experience of working in schools and art settings, completing two post graduate courses at Anglia Ruskin University to deliver workshops and art residencies in Secondary and Primary Schools. I am a fully qualified Arts Award leader on all levels from Discover & Explore to Gold.

Workshops.....

I have always wanted to share my knowledge and so have run many workshops over the years in all sorts of settings from art galleries, schools, empty shops and even in pubs! I have taught all ages from little four year olds up to mature learners in their 80's. I believe passionately in the power of creativity and how important it is to make art in this digital/virtual world.
