Statement

Textiles Illustration -
Within each piece of work I aim to capture a moment of life or an observation that I find amusing, sensitive or quirky.
I like to include snippets of narrative either including text or embedded within the visual content of the piece.
I draw in stitch onto mixed media canvasses and work my ideas directly from sketches, drawings and found imagery.
My inspiration comes from everywhere!
