My urge to lead a creative life commenced early, passion drives the journey. I’ve explored my craft widely with most roads leading back to my love of working with textiles. Wanting to build a personal collection of reference images I started taking photographs and along the way, I fell in love with photography with a particular passion for macro. I enjoy how each medium can be a star in its own right or be part of a mixed media team.

During a trip to the USA, I participated in a workshop on printing digital images onto fabric. A pivotal moment for me first as an artist and secondly a catalyst for how I would approach photography and further explore the incorporation of an image into my works. Being able to print images onto textiles has been a driving force behind gaining confidence as an artist and developing my fabric range.

The best piece of advice that I’ve been given is, “To enjoy the whole journey”.
