The variety, colour and shimmer of these fibres means each piece is unique and tells its own story. Your moving stories of memorable places, words and emotions can inspire a new piece of fibre art, for instance. Or perhaps a piece of fibre art inspires you by connecting to your memories and moods?

A fibre piece with its own character and story is something which can’t be replicated. Because each of my works is individual and distinctive it makes a great addition to personalise your home.

Art Inspired by Fibre

When I started using fibre in my work, I discovered a medium which could create movement and life more effectively than paint. When ‘painting’ landscape views in fibre – capturing the light, shadows, depth, and texture is almost done instinctively by the fibre.

I continue to love exploring new techniques – creating different effects using a variety of fibres to see what they will bring to your piece. I work with wool, silk, camel, alpaca, llama, angora, flax, seaweed, bamboo, and acrylic. I’m always looking for the right fibre and texture for a detail and enjoy the challenge of learning new techniques.

The shapes and energy achieved with these fibres reflect the natural world in a way which creates a vibrant artwork for your walls.

I just wanted to tell you that [they] received ‘Jenny of Thistle’ safely and are overwhelmed by it. She is framed and has taken pride of place in their home. Thank you so much for being willing to undertake the commission for us.

Inspired by Landscape

Have you ever walked in a landscape which is constantly inspiring? My home is on the Ridgeway National Trail where Wiltshire and Oxfordshire meet. Having explored many artistic styles and media over the years I have found textile art best reflects these vibrant landscapes. Fibre is the most intuitive medium for me to capture your experience of the landscape.

Looking over the hills and downs of Wiltshire you can see for miles, and be continually inspired by the changeability of the views. The light can change in minutes altering the view completely.

The changing seasons are also fascinating, with seasonal flowering bringing dramatic colours into the landscape. In a place with such a long history, where the essence of the view has remained the same for centuries, this changeability is an intriguing contrast.

As my local countryside is home to Avebury and Uffington, standing stones and white horses feature widely in my landscape work Alongside these natural and manmade landscapes are exquisite flora and wildlife. This place inspires many who live here as well as those who come to visit; it certainly inspires me.

While living in the UK we were introduced to Ushma’s wool art and fell in love! We purchased 2 gorgeous pieces that remind us of our time in the UK and Ushma even mailed them to us in Canada! I would definitely recommend her art and will look forward to purchasing another piece in the future. Thank you so much Ushma for capturing our cherished memories!
