About
I am a paper artist and designer based in Oban. Working from my home studio, I create playful and interactive paper goods including 3D models, paper illustrations, cards and decorations. I use a process of tactile paper collage where paper is layered to give a unique 3D effect to my work

Inspired by Nature
My range of work is mainly inspired by the natural environment, and is compelled by a desire to modernise and retell the traditions and narratives of Scotland.
I strive to create art that has as little environmental impact as possible and that can ultimately be recycled, whilst providing joy and nostalgia to the everyday
Originally a set and costume designer and model maker for theatre, when lockdown began had to quickly gather my things from my studio and bring all of it in one bag to my parents house. I incidentally brought a pile of coloured paper. With this being the main material I had and a lot of time on my hands, I started seeing what I could do with it, and discovered its endless versatility.
Since then I have been creating paper based models and illustrations, as well as delivering art workshops across Scotland.
