My love of textiles has always been in stitching, Embroidery. Having lived in the Forest of Dean for over 20 years I have now spent the last six years building a body of work to exhibit. After a one person show at Ruskin Mill Nailsworth 18 months ago and several Artist in Residency opportunities I have been hugely encouraged by the response to my work. Themes include wildlife, rewilding and the forest landscape.

Processes are very time consuming but I enjoy the richness of colour and surface saturation that can be achieved through many layers of stitching. Pieces are made by hand stitching or by machine stitching or both often as a result of drawing and painting to work out scale and composition. Many works include an element of humour to support the message.
​
Regular research visits to Birmingham, London and Bristol to see exhibitions feed into the preparation for work.
