About Me

I am about to start a degree course in Nottingham in Costume Design and Making. I love fabric and it is my favourite thing to CREATE :) I have spent the last 10 months being a self employed artist making anything from giant Octopus' to wizards hats to dresses and waistcoats and lino prints. I always have about 7 million projects on the go and am full of creative ideas!
I am a happy and curious person, I love sharing stories and getting lost in new places and wandering about, I rarely make plans, just go wherever I feel that day. I like charity shops and independent venues and cafes. I enjoy being in groups of people, going to parties and dancing and being social but I also like being alone and working on my art or chilling. I love the outdoors, if its sunny i'll be in the park (unless I have an exciting project to finish :))

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving. I scuba dived in Koh Tao in Thailand in 2015 and it was the most beautiful, relaxing, MAGICAL thing I have ever done. I wish I could scuba dive every day!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you have any clothes or bags that need fixing I can probably fix them for you! I always carry around a box of art things and a fixing kit. I can share stories from any of the places I've been and I also make pretty good pancakes (I'm vegetarian) and I love food!
