Tapestry weaving is my artistic outlet. I live and weave near the sea in Christchurch, Dorset, observing nature in the rhythms of tides and seasons. My weavings are meditations on colour, space, and perspective.

I am concerned about the loss of the natural world and our alienation from it, the impact of global changes on the weather and the land and the loss of rituals particularly of grief and mourning.

My current weavings use water to express my concerns and memories of my journey through life.

I have a Postgraduate Diploma in Tapestry Weaving and a Professional Development Diploma in Tapestry and Textile Art from West Dean College. I have exhibited in international exhibitions in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.
