How did you become involved in artist’s books?

I have been making books for over 15 years, an interest that grew from a retreat I was on in Portland, America. 

What is the focus of your practice?

Beachcombing has always been a passion of mine, and Seaglass is the focus around my books, I collect the glass from the seashore, which I put into clay, to form the front cover of the books, I then spin and weave threads to make the back covers. 

What are you working on at the moment?

I am experimenting spinning different fibres such as seacell, bamboo, soya, to weave into the back covers of my books.
