I use mainly natural fibres in my tapestries, weaving on frames or an upright loom. The print weaves combine a colour printout with either its monochrome or negative partner print. These are then cut and woven together resulting in works where vibrant colours and movement predominate. The digital camera and computer manipulation are central to my studio practice. Themes I work with include landscapes, and reflections in water and buildings.

Colour is the cornerstone of my work, with Seurat’s paintings remaining a constant influence in my tapestries. From a distance his pointillist compositions are easily understood but, when close up, they become a series of small dots of pure colour. In a similar vein, my signature style has become pixelated squares and rectangles, and abstract designs are often composed from a series of small squares and rectangles. However, combining pixels with flowing shapes marks a new direction.

I am a member of the British Tapestry Group, the American Tapestry Alliance, a selected member of the European Tapestry Forum and involved with TaP (Textiles and Paper), the Midlands Textile Forum and the Designer Maker West Midlands Forum. I regularly exhibit both in the UK and abroad.

As a qualified and experienced teacher, I lead workshops in a variety of subjects including tapestry and paper weaving, and computer manipulation.
