helen Whittle

I am an artist and felt maker, passionate about the beauty of our natural world.
My work mostly reflects my experiences and contacts at home and on holiday.

As a creative medium felt provides an endless opportunity to experiment. I love the physicality of all that washing and squashing and like to incorporate different fibres like silks and chiffons, hemp and artificial sprinkles to add depth and interest. 

I am constantly learning, and surprising myself with how the designs from my sketches and photographs find a new identity.

Please visit these gallery pages to see work for sale and contact me if you have any questions or want to see more images - it is so hard to show the lights and textures here.
