I have always enjoyed using collage and experimenting with patterns and therefore have a large collection of paper, fabrics, buttons and other bits and bobs i've collected over the years. i wanted to put these to use and create beautiful objects out of things usually disregarded. my inspiration comes from flowers and the shapes within the flowers and also the patterns within the paper and fabric.
This work has developed as i have worked and i have become more playful with colours, size and pattern. i hope this comes across, i wanted the pieces to be fun and beautiful and something you just want to touch. i have also included metal in this work and have handmade many of the chains. metal has always been a key interest of mine so i want to continually be incorporating it in my work.
