Robyn Bayliss, Textile Artist

"I grew up in a large family of 'makers' and have always been driven to create handmade objects. I'm never more content than when I have fibre and tools near at hand. I take inspiration through the observation of my world, both the natural and man-made environment where constant change brings endless opportunities for creative expression."
