I’m a textiles artist based in Gloucestershire. Recently, I have graduated from the University for the Creative Arts, Farnham, where I have gained specialities in hand dyeing and screen-printed textiles. I take an experimental approach to screen printing, working freehand crafting abstract stencils using tearing techniques, which allows for a process-led journey to explore colour, material and simple shapes.
