I have developed a unique style of textile art, which bursts out of the frame with life and vitality.  The techniques I use to achieve this include fabric dyeing, batik, hand and machine embroidery, hand made felt and applied pieces. The many layers are what makes my textile art so distinctive and draws the viewer into the scenes.

Admirers and collectors of my art work can be found around the world, from Russia, to the USA. I have exhibited nationally with many solo shows around Great Britain.  My solo exhibitions include Barbican Library City of London, Gallerie Not, London, Foyles, London W1, Upfront Gallery Cumbria, Institute of Physics, London W1, Visa International London W1, Raybel Barge St. Katherine Dock. I have also exhibited with many art and textile groups. I have also had work accepted for the Society of Woman Artists exhibition at Westminster Halls and the Mall Gallery. I have given workshops and put up a display of my work in Denmark and Norway. 
My book, The Art of Embroidered Flowers, commissioned and published by Search Press Ltd. shows many of the techniques and methods I use. This is selling well in the U.K. and abroad, having been translated into Russian and Norwegian. It was recently put onto Waterstone Bookshops best selling craft book list. 
I have also been featured in many magazines including Wildlife Art (USA), Needlecraft, Workbox, Sewing World, Stitch, with the E.G. Classic Stitchestches Stitches, Woman's  Weekly,FlowerArranging Handarbejdsbladet (Denmark), Patchwork Professional (Germany), Stitch@Home, ZG (Netherlands), Stitch n Bear (South Africa), Fun (Germany) producing projects and articles for many of them. 
I have been Artist in Residence at Missenden Abbey and regularly teach there.

I hope that the excitement and pleasure I get from producing my unusual and joyous art shows through and that my work gives as much pleasure to the viewer.
