I suppose that flowers are a passion in my life and everything I create is in some way inspired by them. Beginning with a small patch of earth I was given as a child, where I grew caterpillared peas, weeds and marigolds, I have worked in my own woodland, town and city gardens, happily gathering a wealth of knowledge and an endless source of inspiration.

	Originally I studied at the London College of Printing and worked for several years as a Graphic Designer. But since returning to the north I have developed techniques using a varied assortment of materials including fabrics, paper maché, wires and wood, to produce three dimensional wall studies of flowers and plants in their everyday places. My jewellery has developed alongside this. From blooms and blossoms I have borrowed a fragrant pallet of colours and a variety of their pleasing shapes. By using a delicate mix of small glass beads and my own handmade beads, I endeavour to translate some of the enjoyment that flowers have given me into timeless garlands fastened with silver.
