I’m a qualified Youth Worker, so the main focus of my work has been with young people; in youth clubs, in museums and galleries, and in their homes. I currently deliver one-to-one arts engagement sessions with young people who are out of education due to poor mental health, as well as a free weekly youth arts group in an area of economic deprivation.

 

I have always been interested in how creativity and the natural world can positively impact on wellbeing and these themes are woven throughout my own creative practice. I often incorporate natural themes into my work and create outside when possible. My own work incorporates experimental stitch and textiles, paper collage, weaving and art-in-nature.
