I have been in art and design for over 25 years, this has given me a solid foundation in the use of colour, texture and design and the inspiration and direction to put my design ideas on to the very special medium of silk.
I am a member of 'The Guild of Silk Painters', and also a member of the 'Federation of Small Businesses'
Working with silk is always a pleasure and a surprise, as each and every fibre is unique. This makes it a truly natural product. No two pieces are ever the same. The very feel of silk is luxurious.
Inspiration for my work comes from my love of nature and my travels both in the U.K. and abroad, from my own garden and the hidden gems you find there, to the open countryside, mountains and further afield to the islands of the Caribbean.
I am passionate about silk and creating individual, innovative and truly luxurious items to wear and own. Commissions are always welcome
Every piece of silk is stretched onto a frame, the design is then hand painted with silk dye, directly on to the silk, then steam fixed. (This is not silk screening) Each piece of work is unique
Each scarf, tie, scatter cushion and wall hanging is an individual design and no two are ever the same.
If you would like to try silk painting we are now taking bookings for workshops, Please see the Workshop page for more info.
