About Me
My Background
I am a textile artist working in Whaley Bridge on the edge of the Peak District in Derbyshire producing work under the guise of ‘Handmade In Horwich End’ a business I created early in 2016 after more than 20 years working in the rail industry. I attended Art school in the late ‘80’s specialising in fine art/painting but have found my passion currently lies in textile art.
My Medium
I work in both 2D & 3D formats, using predominantly fabric and thread. I often recycle unwanted materials while producing original works. Many of my works are produced using a reverse applique technique together with freehand machine embroidery. I very rarely use anything else other than fabric and thread and build my images by removing layers of material whilst layering up stitches
'STITCHED UP! (again)' goes live on the 10th June
I'm back in the Art Café at the Pavilion Gardens in Buxton from the 10th June 'til 2nd August with a new gang of stitched faces! why not pop in, climb that spiral staircase and say hello to my new queens?
