Maker's statement

Represents one of three different ranges (or types) of work that I make: 1. Paper cord; colour extremely important, fun, using textile techniques 2. Large layered paper; more sculptural, serious (colour in a different context, ie, colour of paper etc.) 3. Smaller, more commercial pieces which use the styles and techniques of the above.
