I am looking to discover or buy: Networking; professional/occupational associations, governing bodies,suppliers, news, trends,

About me / About business or organisation:: I create both small and large scale contemporary mixed media illustrations; bespoke design collectable soft sculptures and reconstructed demi-couture fashion. While all three of these art practices and their content are independent from each other, they are connected by their technique and intent.

With a focus on sustainability and the hand-made, my work utilises materials and methods that enable me and accordingly the viewer, to indulge in the little details. This minutia is created by the use of collage, sewing, de-construction, embroidery, screen printing, tailoring, pastels, ink, recycled timber, paper and sustainable or vintage textiles and trims.

Career history / Company history:: 15+ years work experience in fashion, design and media & entertainment industries
Strong strategic approach to research and range development
Specialist skills in fashion illustration and design
Strong focus on bespoke art and design
Expert pattern cutting, draping and grading
Excellent organisational and coordination skills
Specialized hand detailing skills including weaving, felting, screen-printing and dying
