Whimsical and Curious£5.00
Hi, my name is Lauren and I work as an artist full time from my Staffordshire studio.
I studied a BTEC in Art & Design, BA Fine Art and courses in textile art and pottery.
Whimsical & Curious is my collection of Textile Art and Sculpture in my Primitive, Folk Art style.
I am inspired by Magical, Folk Tales as well as the Vintage fabrics and materials I use.
I make quirky, odd, grungy primitive style art.
I am always happy to work on custom pieces, just email me with your ideas

I have always loved making art and collecting unusual little oddities and ephemera. I am inspired by Outsider art, Americana, folk and fairy tales, the Magical World and odd creatures.
I love to work in a Folk, Primitive style often incorporating vintage and antique materials into my work. I like the pieces I make to be unique, mainly one of a kind items , imbued with age and charm.
I often work on manipulating my materials and fabrics over weeks before creating with them. Dyeing, staining and painting vintage fabrics in layers with walnut dye, paints, natural/eco dyeing methods, rust dyeing, tea and cinnamon.
I am an animal lover and vegan, I always mark pieces that are suitable for vegans and can make pieces without wool ( for example if something has wool top hair)
Some pieces were made before I went vegan, and some materials I am working through.
I am striffing to make all my future art vegan friendly and as eco /plastic free as possible. Again I have some plastic card bags left, but when they are gone will go to plastic free etc.....
I studied Art and Design, Crafts and Pottery followed by a BA in Fine Art. I have worked as a Window Dresser and created props for shop windows as well as installations and private commissions.
If you have any ideas for bespoke pieces please feel free to get in touch.
