I’ve worked in the arts since graduating from Huddersfield University in 1984, in both the performing and visual arts fields. Paper became my thing for a while and I even went back to college to qualify as a Bookbinder but not until I found the splendid art of needle felting did I feel truly at home. Now I needle felt 3 D characters inspired by my dog Barney and his ability to change personality according to what he thinks it might get him.
All dogs are individual one-offs and will not be duplicated. They are needle felted from 100% wool with glass eyes. Their clothes are selected from various vintage ranges from Paul, Sindy and Ken, and some are made by my own fair hands.
Next exhibition- please see web site for this year's fair and exhibition dates.
