I’m an Illustrator and Printmaker based in Edinburgh, I studied BA (hons) Textile and Fashion Design where I specialised in Print.
A lot of my work is inspired by the surrounding nature and the Scottish Highlands; I practice across a range of mediums and I’m looking forward to expanding and experimenting further within Abbeymount.
