On my daily walks in South Derbyshire I collect all the small natural materials that catch my eye, including feathers, twigs, seedheads and acorn cups depending on the seasons. Back in my studio I then use these materials to create objects, vessels and collage which are stitched, tied and assembled together. My work aims to embrace and celebrate the natural world for the unexpected beauty of the detail and tiny irregularities.
I run a full programme of art workshops in galleries and the community encouraging others to observe, notice nature and benefit from the peace and tranquillity it offers us.
