SHOP : MCHNB (my cat has nice boots). My work is about the world as I see it. The female experience and questions of identity are a strong theme throughout. Recent work has been inspired by artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Hieronymous Bosch and Marlene Dumas. I am always looking for different ways to tell a story. As Embroiderers’ Guild Education Scholar , I will help to look at ways the Guild can help to promote stitch with younger students in schools and foster a love of stitch from an early age.
