Welcome

Mixed Media & Textile Artist

Thank you for your interest, and welcome to my website.
I am a self-taught artist, whose career as a graphic designer together with a passion for textiles, has influenced and shaped the style of my work. I wanted to explore textile art until I found something that felt fresh and challenging. Lots of things inspire me, but the question is, can I do it, and do it well?

I added hand-cut paper to my skills, which I thought would compliment the fabrics, create colour as well as sharp contrasts and depth.

I was born in South-West France and have moved and lived in Derbyshire since I was 18. You will see both my French roots and my adopted country – including my own garden – reflected in my work. After 4 years as a Banks Mill studios tenant, I am delighted to be now working from my garden studio in Derby.
