Not all my artworks are portraits. Every now and then I use cheesecloth to portray a number of different subjects in nature.

My process involves saturating cheesecloth with adhesive and creating sculptural forms that are ultimately machine-stitched to a background textile. Cheesecloth for me represents the very essence of textiles – the most minimal configuration of warp and weft. Its fluidity permits me to control opacity, to depict light and transparency, to add texture and colour, and to play with chiaroscuro.
