I am an artist based in Whitby, I work from my garden studio and workshop. I enjoy experimenting with a variety of mediums, though I love using natural materials like wool for my pet portraits and wood for crafting decorative homeware and furniture. While I'm more known for my needle-felted pet portraits, I also enjoy creating art and giftware inspired by the local surroundings. Drawing my inspiration from Whitby’s sea and moors. These elements can be seen in my handcrafted wooden pieces, where i combine my love for illustrative designs in hand-burning images of local wildlife. I work on pet portrait commissions as a 2D needle felted image and also work in 3D.
