Introduction

Welcome to my blog! 

I am a designer-maker based in Nottingham, originally hailing from Holmfirth in West Yorkshire I came to study Fine Art at Nottingham Trent University and apart from a few short escapades to New Zealand and back to Holmfirth, here I have stayed.

I make contemporary collages using a variety of materials, antique post-cards, maps and printed papers. Other interests in my life, particularly birds and the natural world influence the subject matter and the images that find their way into my work. I also create beautifully bold and colourful corsages with ribbons, buttons and beads.

I sell my work at art markets and through independent galleries and stores, please contact me directly by email if you have any questions or are interested in purchasing any of my work.

Here you will find images of my work, the markets I have taken part in and any info of future events and markets.

Thanks for looking, Kate.
