“Nature is a never-ending source of inspiration, and being nose deep in plants is when I feel at my happiest.”

My aim is to push the boundaries of what nature can be.

Supersizing scale so that we are immersed in a blossoming jungle of plants and flowers. Capturing their bold playful colours in a characteristic illustrative, painterly style. Directly translating design work, through digital print and experimental approaches to traditional embroidery.

It is an extension of my design process where I paint with stitch, creating enchanting worlds for interiors through surface design and embellishment.
