About Treehuggery

The nicest thing is having my work on permanent display at Derby Royal Hospital - knowing that it helps to give people a smile, if only briefly, is beyond words.

My quirky outdoorsy characters are inspired by a love of found materials and a psychology degree (I really enjoy people watching)

Elastic bands discarded by the postie become exercise resistance bands, tiny pieces of driftwood become skateboards or saxophones, I use found materials in a meaningful and purposeful way, either with a play on words, a link to its original purpose or utilising its shape and texture.

I like nothing better than people watching and then picking up an object and "seeing" it as something or someone else.

I love doing what I do, I've been incredibly humbled
to win several awards and be featured in glossy magazines.
