About Me
I absolutely love leading workshops for the crafty hen, they are so much fun and there is always a lot of laughter each session! I've met some lovely people and find it inspirational to see the unique things each participant makes.
My Favourite Things
I live by the sea and enjoy long beach walks, I also can't resist a good book and I absolutely love to cook. I really enjoy travelling and meeting new people and I do a lot of this through my freelance theatre work as a puppeteer and musician and through my work as a creative workshop leader for the crafty hen team!
My Area of Expertise
I'm a bit of an all rounder but sculpture, paper cutting and textile work are the main areas. I have a background in theatre and music. I work predominantly as a puppeteer and puppet maker and this involves all sorts of techniques such as 3D sculpture, woodcarving, papercutting, drawing & painting, sewing, beading and making all manner of small props.
