Needle Felting
While researching what media I could work in with my chronic fatigue a key factor was it would have to be something I could pickup, put down and work on in 15 minute blocks.
​
I've been crocheting for around 5 years and so my exploration naturally tilted towards wool, which is where I happened upon needle felting.
​
I started in January 2018 with a beginners kit and was hooked. I love working with this material as it allows me to explore different natural fibres and dyes.
​
Most felt artists finish their pieces with wet felting. This is currently too labour intensive for me, but as I continue to recover the potential is there to explore this new technique.

British Sign Language
I'd previously worked in the deaf community as a British Sign Language interpreter.
​
I wanted to experiment with the unique aesthetics of sign language and how that would translate into art.
Doing so has allowed me to continue exploring sign language from a new perspective and while I am no longer an active interpreter it allows me to keep sign language in my life.
