Drawing inspiration from the naturally breathtaking landscapes to be found on the Sussex downs, Jessica's work shows true craftmanship, originality and beauty. The new collection will be displayed throughout the restaurant and will be individually priced.
"My aim is to evoke the variety and beauty of the natural world by using a multitude of fabrics, materials and techniques to achieve colour, texture and relief", says Jessica, "I am realy pleased to be exhibiting at Food for Friends, it's a beautiful restaurant with lots of soft natural light".
Having studied Creative Embroidery at Brighton Technical College - a course organised by Goldsmiths, University of London, Jessica has had some of the best training in the country.
Shortly after the birth of her daughter, Jessica settled in the small rural village of Rustrel in Provence, which was surrounded by breathtaking countryside and bathed in beautiful light. Inspired by this extraordinary landscape she began using her embroidery to capture its beauty.
