Art & Nature Workshops & Events

With over 17 years experience in education and textile art, I'm dedicated to reigniting creative sparks in all, be it the eager young minds or those with a wealth of life experiences. Textiles is my chosen canvas, and I'm excited to share my knowledge while embracing diverse perspectives in an inclusive environment.

I believe in the healing power of nature and seamlessly blend it with the expressive potential of textiles, creating an immersive experience for participants to hone their skills and find inspiration in the harmonious connection between art and nature.

Join me on this creative journey, where imagination and nature's healing embrace intertwine, offering a vibrant space for learning, self-discovery, and the limitless exploration of artistic expression.
