Following redundancy from a local interior design company I started my own business in 2011 through a local enterprise scheme, which gave me the opportunity to turn a long term hobby into a business.

I am self taught and have developed my own distinctive style of making art with fabrics. Thread is used as my drawing tool and I use layers of textured recycled fabrics, Irish tweeds and felted wools instead of paints for areas of colour and tone. I also use real pencils and paints for shading and highlighting areas of her fabric landscapes.

I work from my little stone cottage nestled deep in the countryside of scenic Co. Kerry. Combining a mix of hand and machine stitching, raw edge applique, felting, bead work and embroidery in my work, I ensure that each individual creation is completely unique!

I'm endlessly enchanted by the ever changing palette of colours and the tactile richness that the Irish landscapes have to offer. Needless to say, much of my work is inspired by nature and the mountains, forests and coastlines that surround me!

I love to use a mix of natural fibres and recycled fabrics in my Irish textile art range. Layers of textured fabrics, Irish tweeds and felted wools are perfect for creating a strong sense of the textures and tones of the surrounding landscapes.
