Below is a piece i wrote about my process
Find a location, a text or a humorous story
Study relevant people
Find a contemporary link
Develop an idea and study a traditional technique
Add a bit of humour
And some craftsmanship and hand skills
And translate into something tangible which will be inclusive, engaging and encourage a smile
This is the recipe for my craft
