About

Monica has always had a fascination and passion for materials and their potential. She has experimented with a variety of materials and techniques over the last twenty years. After a first career in teaching she became a jeweller working with silver, semi-precious stones and resin. In 2006 after a series of serendipitous encounters with other creatives she created a range of handbags. Alongside the production of the bags Monica owned her own shop in Twickenham. Through her love of textiles and surface print she has learned to screen print and now creates unique portraits and small scenes using machine embroidery.
