Laura Edgar Textile Artist & Tutor
Hello and welcome to my website. I am a textile artist & tutor based in Whitley Bay on the NE of England's coastline.
I became fascinated by art at an early age which prompted my art and design motivated further education. I specialised in Textile Design (BA Hons), which I followed by working as a freelance textile designer creating embellished fabrics for the fashion market with a focus on embroidery.
At present, I work in the mediums of textiles and mixed media, exploring an eclectic mix of vintage, recycled fabrics and ephemera; incorporating embroidery and painting techniques to create original art, prints, accessories and cards.
My work is available to purchase via galleries which are listed in 'Outlets & Events' or via my online 'Etsy Shop'. For any other enquiries or commission requests, please do not hesitate to email me via the 'Contact' page.
