About me
I am a print designer specialising in using mark making and collage to create designs for stationery items and textiles. My keen interest in colours means that during the development stages of a project, I consider a wide breadth of colours, carefully choosing those that are most suitable. I try to take inspiration from a variety of sources, ranging from ancient fossils to the Adinkra symbols of Ghana. I would love to design stationery collections that are suitable for fabric and paper, and that are both visually exciting and have a mass market appeal.
