What is your work & design process?
Once I have an initial idea, I'll draw out or paint all the elements for the design. Using Photoshop or Illustrator I will arrange them into repeat patterns. It's normally quite an organic process, I don't overly plan the final outcome, I just work on the design until I'm happy with it.

Where do you find your design inspiration?
I love fashion, so sites like Vogue are great for trend and colour ideas, but I find most of my inspiration in nature and often sketch the flowers in my garden and the surrounding countryside.
