You've met Penny and myself, so now it's time for, last but not least...
EDUCATION: BA(Hons) Textile Crafts
OCCUPATION: Designer maker - Textiles, and artist educator

BIO: I am a textile maker based in Bristol, but working across the South West and parts of the South East. I deliver community art projects, art workshops and anything else that involves sharing skills and teaching people new crafty things.
I have worked as lead artist on a number of large projects over the last 8 or 9 years as well as a number of smaller workshops and projects. I work with anyone and everyone and particularly enjoy working on projects that have creativity at their core. I love to share skills and watch people create and make. It's great seeing people proud of what they have made.
My role in this project is to mentor 2 emerging artists, Sarah and Penny, to develop their careers in community arts, but also as artists themselves. I will be taking a mainly supportive role in the project in terms of delivery, but will act as support to both artists in their delivery, planning and every other stage of the project. I will be co-ordinating the artists, sessions, monitoring and evaluation etc. I will also be delivering the sessions to primary schools. I'll also be installing the showcase at the church, which I can't wait to see.
