I am a multi-media marbling artist and educator, with over 30 years marbling and textiles experience. I trained in leatherwork and began marbling on leather over 15 years ago. I create small batches of marbled textile art for home décor, stationery and wearable art. Since 2021, I have exhibited and sold work in Manchester Art Gallery, The British Museum, Make Southwest and Craft Festival. I tutor in schools, galleries and national museums and I am a tutor at West Dean College.

Working towards net zero, I have a circular design range, made from offcuts of marbled textiles and paper, to create items including marbled leather jewellery, key fobs, jewellery, handmade paper and fabric bags. I repurpose theatrical textiles received from the Royal Opera and Ballet. I am currently working on a filtration system for my new studio, so marbling paints are absorbed in lime, so the water run-off is clean. Packaging is repurposed recycled paper.
