I love the watery feeling of the batik. You have captured the wetness of the water and the shimmering light perfectly. I especially love the radiating rings from a drop of water in the lower left. Brava! It must be very exciting to be recognized as a “Fine Artist” in the fullest sense of the words!

The first and most important thing is that we really love the rowing-boat print we bought from you at Standen the other day. Having spent hours shuffling other pictures... we've ended up placing it on a wall overlooking the dining-room table. So every time we eat, there it is, bobbing above us. It's a beautiful picture.

Thank you for all the photos and thoughts you are putting into our batik painting. I'm really excited about it joining our Venice one which has been so admired. I can gaze at it for hours, imagining what is happening in the canal around the corner.

The batik painting looks really lovely! It really gives me pleasure. I enjoy the part where the trees meet the sky, and all the bushes at the left and the colours and everything - especially the house 'Bonny View'!

Workshop Testimonial

I thoroughly enjoyed your workshop. You are a talented artist and teacher, and I was so inspired by your class. Thank you for traveling all that way and sharing so much with our group!

Workshop Testimonial (Chicago)

I just wanted to reiterate how much I got out of the Bath Textile Summer School workshop. I enjoyed it enormously and thought it was a great group of people.  And your tuition was much appreciated.  Its inspired me so much that I’ve started looking into getting my own equipment and have already obtained some second hand cantings and kystkas.  Thank you so much for your patience.

Bath Textile Summer School (August, 2022)

I just wanted to thank you for such a fantastic weekend batiking! It was great to meet you and other participants. I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to have a go, learn, practise and develop new skills. It was so lovely to work with you and other people in the group. It is always helpful to have other people’s reflection and critique and not to work in isolation. I really appreciated being able to discuss work with you and other people present. I feel extremely motivated to continue to develop my skills in batik and have already ordered procion dyes! I particularly enjoyed seeing all the examples of batik you have and learning about the techniques. - Given me lots to think about and explore.

Ruth

October 2022 batik workshop

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the workshop today. You are a gracious and skilled teacher. I never felt lost in the technical learning required of a new skill set and enjoyed the fact that you were present enough to answer questions and absent enough to let me try on my own. A wonderful balance.

Workshop Testimonial

I so enjoyed the weekend. All the colours around me since then have been so much easier to see, brighter and more intense. Lovely. It was lovely getting back to doing Batik again.

Workshop Testimonial (Nov 2020)

Thank you so much for your talk yesterday. I found your talk fascinating, particularly the history of all the different types of batik around the world. …. I am in awe of your skill though. I didn't realise that you could get such amazing detail in a batik picture. Really beautiful. ……You certainly brightened up a dull afternoon!
