I am a Textile Artist based in Liverpool,recently graduated from Loughborough University with a BA (hons) in Printed Textiles. My work usually consists of heavily illustrated Screen-Prints that are an explosion of imagery and colour. I love to layer my prints with many different dyeing procresses, leaving them with different textures and a variety of line qualities. My one off designs make a statement and make people stop to look, with dark imagery stemming from a variety of places from woodlands and Steampunk to the strange world of scary clowns; I then like to infuse bright colours to contradict the macabre nature of my drawings.

When I'm not Screen-printing, you will find me stuffing strange bewildered animal plushies and monsters which have followed on from the strange nature of my prints. I have a love of craft textiles and these are produced in felt.

My inspirations include the fashion designers Vivienne Westwood and the late Alexander McQueen, the films of Tim Burton, illustrations by Edward Gorey and the strange tales of Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.
