I create homewares sustainably using natural materials and processes. My textiles are hand dyed, printed and constructed in my studio in Glasgow using Irish linen, hemp or recycled / organic cottons with natural inks and dyes from British suppliers.
I'm a designer maker with 10 years experience working and exhibiting in Scotland. I aim to make work which is a reflection of our heritage and design past using both traditional and digital techniques. I make work which showcases art's ability to care for our environment and work with people to co-create public art and craft pieces which can inspire and instil pride. I work with artists and communities through many different craft processes to encourage our sense of place and improve wellbeing.
I studied printmaking at Gray’s School of Art followed by a HND in Visual Communication at Edinburgh College. Since my education I’ve had many different opportunities to practice my craft including the Edinburgh Printmakers New Generation Award, Invited Artist at Scottish Society of Artists and Building Arts Programme participant with QEST and the Prince’s Foundation.
