Johanna Brinkworth Interiors - Painter / Illustrator (St Albans)

Artist Statement:
I have always been a practicing artist in many mediums. As a textile designer, I designed, painted, printed and embroidered sumptious silk cushions, scarves and wall hangings. With commissions and interest in interior design I eventually trained in that field. This is how I fulfilled my interest in all aspects of design and I now offer a comprehensive and full interior design service for fabrics, funiture, lighting, flooring, space and storage design. I also work to commission for paintings, murals, mosaic and garden features. A recent commission was for a pattern design on a large free standing, sandblasted and etched glass garden panel in a contemporary garden.

A broad range of interests and influences from art, architecture, photography, design history, travelling and nature all contribute to Johanna's styling.
