Artist Bio:

this work is a natural progression from textile design back into drawing & painting.

within the beautiful location of amber valley, i'm enjoying working on a new garden that i'm gradually filling with floral inspiration; novice gardener with firm plant favourites in terms of structure, texture & colour combination.

exploring & experimenting with fresh creative processes, as well as the familiar layering and tactile qualities of embroidered work, have led to these colourful, expressive, textural pieces based in nature.
