I am a textile artist, living and working from a studio in my house in Aberfeldy in Highland Perthshire

From childhood I have been a lover of fabric and threads but the City & Guilds Creative Embroidery course at Dundee took my interest to a different level. A total immersion in design, colour and texture using traditional and contemporary techniques drew me in so far that now there is no escape!

I am fascinated by the layering of our landscape and the juxtaposition of colour and texture in rock, heather and water using hand dyed semi-translucent fabrics enables me to give an impression of what I see and the simple stitching gives definition and adds texture.

I have exhibited with the Society of Badenoch and Strathspey Artists, Creative Cairngorms and Fortingall Arts. I am also a member of Broderie Alba which has exhibited around Scotland.
