The Artist
Charlotte's training in Art began at Canterbury College of Art where she followed a one year Art Foundation Course. She went onto Goldsmiths' College, London where she took her degree in Fine Art Textiles. After taking a year out, she decided to go into teaching and studied for a Post Graduate Certificate of Education in Art and Design.
Her teaching career started in Tower Hamlets in East London, where she taught for three years. The make up of the student intake, approximated in 70% of pupils coming from Bangladesh, 20% form Somalia and the remaining 10% from the UK. This cultural diversity resulted in exciting, expressive and highly decorative work produced by students in the field of Art and Textiles.
After 14 years teaching experience, she is now taking time out to pursue her own creative ideas.
Her current work is inspired by Turkish and Islamic Art, Lettering, Art and Illuminated Manuscripts, that reflects her fascination with kaleidoscopes, mandalas and manuscripts.
