My background in hand embroidery led me to being interested in creating a fabric rather than merely embellishing it. Tapestry weaving provides the ideal medium for fusing colour, texture and form into a well-crafted object. My designs tend to be abstract with a strong bias towards pattern, taking ideas from plant life and architecture, both concerned with structure. I prefer to weave with natural fibres and each piece is researched through drawing, photography, collage, and colour studies. Colour is sympathetic to the subject matter rather than a literal representation of it.
