Initially inspired by creatures from under the sea and flying through the air and more recently by geological maps.
These pieces are created first with layers of paint on canvas, I then use freehand machine embroidery to layer up colours and textures. I am constantly experimenting with the different mark making you can produce using a sewing machine.
A fascinating and addictive process that I am learning more about each day. On this page you can see work in progress, originals and my ltd edition giclee prints.
I will work to commission so if you have any requests for pieces please feel free to contact me.
