Hi! I'm Tara, an artist and maker based on the Bedfordshire/Hertfordshire border. I work from my fabulous home studio with my soon to be husband, our two jack russells and our Quaker parrots.

​​

​

I’m a bird nerd and a natural history buff, who believe it or not, worked as a zoo keeper for several years specializing in birds- everything from corvids, birds of prey to parrots… Birds play a huge role in my original artwork (can you tell?!) I worked my way up to a senior position but decided it was time for a change as the long hours were catching up with me.

 

 

 

I was declared 'Gifted and Talented' (how fancy) in Textiles and Art throughout school and college and have a Double Distinction in Art and Design. So it's safe to say I've been a creative with fibre, mixed media and everything in between my entire life. 

 

​

Everything I make is made with a lot of love and care and I take great pride in the commissions and pieces I work on.

​

I also help to run Stotfold Art Group on a Thursdsay afternoon.
