A black and white linocut print of a garden at night, lit by a full moon. Mysterious lights move up through the garden towards a strange temple, while a white rabbit watches from the steps below.

This handmade tufted wall hanging features a large bold anemone in shades of pinks and mauves, with dark green leaves providing contrast. Crafted from 100% wool, the textured surface invites touch, offering a sense of movement and depth. The anemone, a flower that signals the shift from summer to autumn, is depicted in full bloom, echoing the way these delicate blossoms sway along country paths as the seasons change. The piece is backed with cork for added structure and has hangings on the reverse allowing it to be displayed easily on a wall.

This artwork is in portrait format featuring a male swimmer standing on a high wall in the hot sun. The marina wall is made up of colourful blocks with vintage typographic elements, giving the impression it is built with found pieces of wood from old boats and decaying huts. There is a lot of negative space drawing the viewers eye towards the sheer size of the wall and the small figure on top.

Dotty is a 3d imaginary representation of a guinea-fowl. She has a cloth body which is firmly packed with polyester stuffing, this creates a rigid structure, upon which a paper clay head is attached. There is no join between the two parts as paper clay is applied over the join to create a smooth finish. Paper clay is air dried and is light in weight. The multi-coloured clay head is painted using water colours, which allows layering and blending giving a subtle change in tones. Lower down the cloth body area is solid black acrylic paint, with many white dots applied using the end of different sized wooden skewers dipped in white acrylic to create the dots. The body has a firm smooth feel. The head is more delicate as it is made of clay and has a rougher texture.
