How would you describe your approach to
teaching?
I enjoy sharing my creative practice, repertoire of print and
design knowledge, and passion for colour and pattern. I bring
originality and structure to the excitement of botanical fabric
printing.
What inspires your own work?
I draw from observation; the inspiration is predominantly
landscapes, gardens and foliage. My printed textile designs are
lyrical and abstracted representations of this environment;
rhythmical, colourful and joyful fabrics.
