Artist based in Edinburgh, Scotland. One girl sweat-shop in her wee studio. The occasional tea breaks is shared with her cat Lorne, named after the sausage, not the valley.

I have several online shops and also sell in markets and fairs around the UK and Australia.

I trained as a bookbinder in Florence, so I make alot of books and restores some. I am also a painter and printmaker. I love screenprinting and woodblock printing. I have a degree in drawing and painting.

I enjoy dancing and I was a classical ballerina for 13 years, but now I just do alot of comtemporary. I have recently gotten into the 5 rhythms classes and flamenco.

When I am away from my studios, I tend to travel as much as possible. I have recently come back from a trip to Pamplona, Spain to see the Bull runs and earlier in the year I was trekking through Borneo for a month with my boyfriend.

I tend to bring back, materials, fabrics, inspiration and renewed energy to do my creative works.
