“The Face Fabric” 


Reflecting a personality through one image by really examining facial expressions and colour has been my main aim for the past year. Translating My portraits through my chosen medium of textiles has been difficult but extrmemly rewarding. By working solely with machine embroidery I have found a way of translating my paintings onto fabric and managed to maintain the soft colours and blends that I took from my paintings.

Statement


Looking at decoration and femininity has always been a prevalent theme throughout my work, working with a variety of mixed mediums and materials. My work ranges from drawing and collage to photography (both medium format double exposures and digital work), which I try to bring together through installation based pieces.
