Biography

I live and work in a village near Stratford upon Avon and much of my work is based on the view from my garden over rural Warwickshire. My art celebrates and interprets that landscape, one of the loveliest places in the country. I see it as a combination and juxtaposition of colours and textures, simultaneously eternal and ever-changing, which is what I try to communicate

By incorporating worn and pre-loved fabrics, vintage as well as the simply old and discarded, I hope my art pays tribute to those legions of women who throughout history have darned, knitted, mended and stitched to keep their families warm and their homes comfortable: each piece is a little act of love.
