Approach to Teaching

"I love to see students thrilled by what they have achieved! Passing on skills and ideas I love to I hear 'ooh, I know what I want to go home and make now!'"

Inspiration for my own work

"My current mixed media textile artworks are inspired by my fascination for museum objects and cabinets of curiosity combined with my passion for extraordinary botanical forms and sea creatures."
