I practise in textile-based arts & crafts, with a special fondness for silk-painting, felt-making and stitch. As well as creating art pieces - mostly pictures and wall-hangings - I also make textile bags, cushions and accessories using a combination of created and found fabrics, often rescued vintage or recycled, with added decoration and embellishment.
My photography is used mainly as inspiration for my textile work but I do also exhibit prints from time to time and have a small range of cards featuring scenes of Littlehampton and Arundel, which are available through local outlets.
I'm currently running small workshops in felt-making, sewing and knitting from my home/studio in Littlehampton, West Sussex. Please see my blog for more details www.thebrighthouseblog.blogspot.com
