Who we are
West Midlands based teacher and printmaker.
Although I occasionally create stitched pieces, it is linocut printmaking that dominates my work. I love the almost meditative process of carving and the boldness of a single block print on a beautiful handmade paper.
Each of my pieces is made by hand, by me and begins with my own sketches and templates. Whether working in print, stitch or a combination, my inspirations remain the same – I am hugely inspired by the natural world and its changing seasons and by the people around me, with text frequently playing an integral part in my work.
