I've always had a passion for all things 'arty' since I was old enough to pick up a crayon. Now, at 24 years old, I am a Textile & Surface Design graduate specialising in interiors, focusing on wall coverings, furnishing fabrics and room accents.
My signature style communicates a love of contrasts, whether it may be in colour, techniques or processes or a combination of all three! I love to mix the bold and contemporary with the sensitive and traditional to create a sense of visual impact.
I like to produce designs which mix both digital and hand printing techniques, as I believe they compliment each other beautifully in their polar opposites. Although I specialise within the interiors market, I would like to think that my designs are universally commercial and can be used on a variety of surfaces, from walls to fashion or even stationary. I have the ability to encompass an array of specialised techniques and processes which I immerse myself into with a passion. I also love to use embroidery, especially hand embroidery as it provides textural quality.
Both digitally and hand rendering imagery from the graphic to the detailed is amongst my many strengths. I am also competent within Photoshop and Illustrator which gives my work a contemporary feel.
But perhaps my forte lies within print and pattern. Although the creation of a seamless repeat and a hand printed design require effort and discipline I feel that the end result is one of ultimate satisfaction.
This is a space for me to showcase my work, my journey and my progression through my final year studying BA (Honours) Textiles & Surface Design and into the world of work.
I hope you enjoy looking at my work as much as I enjoy creating it!
