Working in the studio.

ABOUT ME

Textile Artist

Working with donated knitwear rendered unwearable by age or over vigorous washing I create richly textured pictures. Often inspired by literature, myths or legends the pictures are a combination of relief appliqué and dense woollen hand stitching combining pictorial elements with pattern or abstract design. 
The sleeves of the aforementioned jumpers are used to make woollen people, softly stuffed and hand stitched.

​
Visitors are welcome to the studio by arrangement.
