 1. What part of the process of creating art do you like best?

I enjoy taking photographs of Australian landscapes and interpreting these images in thread and textile.

Working with threads doesn't take a lot of space so my working environment is mainly my coffee table and couch, which gets covered in threads and textiles and shared with my rescue cat

I am essentially self taught but I did complete a part time 6 month course with the Embroiderer’s Guild Textile Arts Certificate in 1985

Traditional women's embroidery techniques and watercolour landscapes
