I I am a teacher, artist & woodland ranger, living & working in Sheffield on the edges of the Peak District.

I use traditional hand tools, techniques & processes from an age gone by to create functional & beautiful contemporary & traditional baskets.I also make natural cosmetic products from the willow I grow.From the front room & kitchen of my 1 bedroom house (it 3 actually but the others are filled with willow & other 'stuff')I am assisted by 2 greyhounds to weave, strip, sort, drill, & create all manner of weird &wonderful things.
