I’ve worked in the creative industry all my working life. I worked in London for 15 years, starting out in graphic design, moving on to animation and music video direction, and finally as a founder and co-owner of a Soho-based animation company. 

Whilst working with the animators, I discovered a passion for paper art. But as creative director, I wasn’t able to get hands on and I really missed creating my own stuff.

As life moved on, I fell pregnant and life threw me a few pretty big challenges. We moved out of London and down to Hove, which is near Brighton on the south coast of England, UK. I realised I needed to take the pressure off and find a creative outlet that would be more immersive, less stressful and not screen based. 

The nature of animation means that you can’t justify labouring for weeks over what is essentially one image, and I really wanted to immerse myself in something.
