Creative Workshops using recycled materials: repurposing, re-using and upcycling to create awesome new craft & art work. Open to all skill levels.

Lead by a multi-disciplinary artist/designer/maker. I am a multi-medium practitioner in art, craft and design. I wish to extend my experience and knowledge base to help others get the creative bug! My aim is to provide adult workshops in the community, mainly for beginners. I want to reach those who love art and craft, but don’t believe they can do it themselves. My workshops would also appeal to

those who have some skill in one area, but wish to expand their experience and ability in others. I was raised by artist parents and have been immersed in creativity all my life. I am passionate about materials and have used many methods to create things including drawing, painting, collage, print-making, artist books, concept art pieces, papercrafts, sewing, embroidery, applique, quiltmaking, macrame, ceramics and soft furnishings. I come equipped with an AA in Fine Art and also BA Interior Design, combined with 18 years in the Fashion Industry as a sample seamstress for designers. I have led one-off projects, and taught artist book classes to Primary School children. The Dandy Lion Market has been my baby for over 4 years, curating hundreds of makers and traders from every discipline, while continuing alongside to make and showcase my own work as well. It has also given me a platform to develop design, promotion, communication and organisational skills. I am dedicated to conserving, reusing, recycling and re-purposing resources. A nostalgic soul, I am also powered by inspiration and innovation! Art, craft and design work together in an unpretentious but stylish way.

This group, Drawn Together, hosted by Creative Health Camden at my local health centre has been instrumental in helping me keep in touch with my creative side. Here is moi sharing/showing and curating some of my recent work in readiness for our recent exhibition, up in the James Wigg health centre, in Kentish Town. We have work up in the Queen's Crescent health centre also.

This is so true and totally relevant to the art group I'm a member of. Creative Health Camden Its something any creative person should bear in mind, to practice playfulness and not always be concerned with perfection.
