Fairy Service - Celebrating 20 Years of Making
Working from her garden studio in Mirfield, West Yorkshire, Samantha has been making humorous yet industrious fairy-like creatures; adorned with items from her eclectic hoard of buttons, spotted feathers, seed pods, dyed leathers, and contraptions influenced by Victorian flying machines. She combines these materials and found objects to inform their intriguing personalities.
