Ellie is an experienced fibre artist, who constantly develops her practice.

She produces ecoprints by the “Dirty Pot” method, which uses no chemical mordants. This natural process, of transferring a print direct from an individual leaf, takes beautifully on natural fabrics such as silk, cashmere, and linen.

This creates stunning pieces with natural earthy shades as a background to moody purples, sultry oranges, subtle greens and striking sable prints.

Ellie likes to experiment, and mix techinques. She processes fleece and spins her own yarns for various projects, such as wall hangings.

She is a crochet specialist, using a variety of techniques in her work, and teaching others.

Ellie will also be at Pittenweem Arts Festival from 2-9 August 2025.
