About Me

I'm Fee, and I'm from bonnie Scotland. I live in the middle of nowhere with my wonderful man, my two beautiful daughters, and our four cats, three chickens, and honey bees :)

I've been a self-employed artist and crafter since 2009 and I can't imagine ever doing anything else for a living. I''m currently studying for a degree in English Literature - I love love LOVE reading, and I buy far too many books as well as making them myself. I mainly read literary fiction and magical realism, and I'm a sucker for poetry. I also love taking photographs, making art and writing poetry; stationery, journalling, Midori/Traveler's notebooks, mountains, forests, funghi and bontanica, nature illustration, and taxidermy.

Favorite Movies

Any of Wes Anderson, Alfred Hitchcock, or David Lynch's films.

Favorite Crafts

My day job is making and selling stuff so I do a lot of crafting! I mainly work with tartan, making brooches and other lovely things, but I also make jewellery, soaps and balms, greeting cards, soft toys and dolls, papier mache bits and bobs, and notebooks and journals.

In my spare time I try to make art - pretty pictures rather than 'stuff'. I love journalling, collage, embroidery, and working with anything water soluble. I love drawing people and houses. The concept of what is 'home' is really interesting to me.
