I create dynamic fibre art from repurposed materials, and am fascinated about how creativity helps our own personal journeys. My fibre art is inspired by the "wow" of nature's lines around us. I make my art by sewing layers of fabrics together, then slash, deconstruct and heat distress revealing the layers below, and a bit of myself in each piece. Lastly, shaping, stitching and embellishments highlight the beauty within. I am trained in the expressive arts therapies and event management.
