About me

I am a print designer and artist based in Lincoln, specialising in prints for fashion and interiors. With a versatile and inquisitive style I create unique designs suitable for many outcomes. I am passionate about expressive and bold print design and with a strong application of colour, I aim to evoke positivity. My style is driven by hand processes such as painting, collage and printmaking which I confidently combine with CAD software. I am a recent graduate of MA Textile Design Innovation at Nottingham Trent University with a Commendation. I graduated with a First-Class Honours in (BA) Textile Design from Leeds Arts University in 2020. With a strong commercial awareness, I have experience of creating designs for fashion, interiors and greetings.
