3 Decades of Artistic Journey
With over 30 years of experience in creating, exhibiting, and teaching, I bring a wealth of expertise to my craft.
​
I specialised in Textiles and Machine Embroidery at Goldsmith's College, London University [BA Hons] and have a Masters in Textiles from UCE, Birmingham. I have taught in a plethora of educational environments and supported numerous creative businesses.
​
My work is not only a personal exploration but also a contribution to the broader discourse on the intersection of art and craftsmanship.
Artist & Maker
In my creative world, "drawing the line" takes on a dual meaning. It's the starting point of every creation, an intentional act of observing and drawing that forms the backbone of my artistic vision.
It's also an invitation - a call to explore the boundaries between mediums, where pencil lines can transform into stitched threads and then, into delicate silver jewellery.
​
Semantics often confuse art/craft/design & making: I am all of these, but none of them without drawing.
Drawing helps me make sense of the world. All my work stems from observational drawing, without it there is no direction.
​
Making is a meditation: I get lost in its rhythm...yet I work with speed infusing my creations with vitality and energy.
