Memories of my experiences of journeys across the world come to life again in my studio.
My current series is founded on our wonderful time in Kolkata.
I loved Kolkata. The sounds. The colour. The warmth from others.
Here in my studio, nothing is rushed. Each piece is woven carefully with intention.
Each piece is unique. The rhythm of my hands and steps; the behaviour of the yarn; the decisions made in the moment rather than imposed in advance. As an artist, little is planned in my weaving.
Come and read my journal notes from Kolkata and have a peek side my studio. My E-Zine is now available. Link in Bio.

Reveal time! The city of inspiration for my current series is Kolkata; starting with my memories of Mullik Ghat Flower Markets.
Kolkata was the beginning of our drive in our 1923 Vauxhall through India, Bhutan and Myanmar.
I had the most wonderful time in Kolkata.
Have you ever been there?
Come spend some time vicariously experiencing Kolkata through my Studio E-Zine; where I share my Journal notes from Kolkata and a sneak peek into my Studio and how my inspiration from the Mullik Ghat flower markets have inspired my current series of handwoven blankets.
I’ve just started this new account, so if you’ve been interested in my posts, love you could share them to spread the luv! ♥️

My weaving is deeply rooted in my experience. My remote journeys and experiences continue to move through me as I weave.
Although weaving involves repetitive tasks, my movements are intentional and connected to my spirit, memory and experiences. Weaving for me is far more than a physical task. It is art; my voice through my hands.
Thank you for joining in with me to guess where my memories are from for my current Series. Here are some more clues in the photographs.
DM your guess where you think this place is. Looking forward to reading where you think!

The lines hold meaning.
Privileged to be able to weave alongside the lines drawn in Abbie Loy’s Body Painting 2012, and @sallyblakeartist Sacred Thought.
@qingfibre Lemon is the most wonderful yellow, forming the story lines in my warp.
