textiles

I draw my inspiration from the colours and textures I see around me.
In everyday life we can take nature for granted but in fact it's always present, always changing and always breathtaking and I aim to capture this 'magic' in my work. The natural flowing quality of the velvet and silks I work with are a perfect medium for this. As I place the dyes onto the material they flow into one another creating new colours and patterns. These are then transformed into sumptuous scarves, bags and small gifts enriched using an embellisher, machine and hand embroidery.
