Yuliya Podolska Yuliya grew up in Kiev as the USSR was coming to an end and Ukraine was emerging as an independent state. As a child Yuliya was obsessed with drawing and this obsession won her a place at one of the USSR's top schools of art, The Kiev Academy of Fine Art, where she studied for six years. Yuliya focussed on the art of classical and renaissance statuary throughout her studies and now produces sculptural works in a variety of media. |

Gina Portman - FOLK at home For me hand knitting is a combination of meditation and fascination. "How can I make that piece of yarn transform into a three dimensional object?" Once there, the urge to throw it into the washing machine to destroy or transform is too strong..... www.folkathome.com |

Susan Prince - Textile Artist Loving the colour, texture and tactile experience of textiles, I use different crafts to make both useful and decorative objects. I now use feltmaking, embroidery, beadwork, patchwork, quilting and applique in my work and strive for beauty and good craftmanship. The studio has been a belated but very welcome opportunity for me to, at last, do what I have always wanted to do. |
