About Sea of Felt

Sea of Felt

Finding joy in creating unique pieces from handmade felt.

Hello I am a felt artist based in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex. I use both wet & needle felting techniques in my work.

I first learnt the amazing craft of feltmaking at an afternoon workshop, and I have been “felting” ever since. In 2015 I gained a City & Guilds in felt making, and I am a member of the International Feltmakers Association and Leigh Art Trail.
I work from my small studio at home.

Felt is so versatile, forgiving, reusable, and I love the endless possibilities of this ancient craft. Modern & contemporary uses; practical as well as well as decorative pieces of art, feltmaking brings enrichment & enjoyment in so many ways.

I’m inspired mainly by the natural world; walks in the countryside, beautiful gardens and especially by the sea and shoreline. The ever changing weather & seasons, and the effect these have on nature, is a constant source of inspiration. It is always a challenge trying to interpret the natural world in my artwork, a challenge which brings enjoyment and on occasions frustration!

I sell my work at local craft fayres, been part of exhibitions both locally & in Somerset, and had work for sale in cafes in Leigh-on-Sea and Stow-on-the-Wold.

Thank you for visiting my shop and I hope you enjoy my work.
