Welcome to Blackbird House

My photo
Speyside, North East Scotland
I studied Textile Art at Edinburgh College of Art. I am in to drawing and making....This is a selection of all my most recent work ranging from screenprints to watercolour illustrations to printed bunting to hand made cushions. My inspiration comes from the life I lead surrounded by the things I love most...my children, my home, chickens and garden birds...wild flowers and hedgerows.

Just to say HELLO to you all and Thank you for looking. I have done no new work the last few days as the weather has been so gorgeous and I have been outside planting flowers and having a huge bonfire. It has also just been my birthday and I have been flooded with so much love and gorgeous presents x thank you. The best being a mug and plate with a Mark Hearld design of Blackbirds on .... so great.... look him up... he is a printer and illustrator who I think is amazing. http://www.stjudes.co.uk/
