Ingrid Sixsmith

I specialise in commissioned handwoven tapestries, tufted and carved hangings & rugs, digitally designed and printed silks and paintings for the public/corporate and health markets. My work derives influence from nature, combining stylised landscapes and figurative elements with rhythmic form and sometimes local photographic material.
