About me
I am an analytical, creative and conscientious English Literature graduate. I have an interest in art and craftsmanship, which I have explored within my degree as well as independently, developing my own knowledge in artistic method and practice through travel, work and independent study. At the moment, with my interest in sustainability and previous experience in natural dyeing, pattern cutting and silkscreening, I am experimenting with surplus food waste to create my own work. I have experience in tailoring and costume which I am keen to develop and pursue further.
