Morag Lloyds

Morag has had a varied career in art; she worked as a designer in London in the late 70’s and trained at Colleges both in England and Scotland studying both illustration and fine art, she also has a love of social history and has written and published two books on the subject.

Morag has always painted but has been working full time as an artist for 15 years now and exhibits her work with Galleries around the UK.  Morag enjoys painting, but also loves to work with textiles.

Her paintings are inspired by past years sailing with family around the Scottish Islands for over 20 years exploring hard to reach places and learning about the history of the ruined settlements. Her love of the sea, the rural landscape with its rich history and wildlife gives her plenty of inspiration.

More recently work sees Morag revisiting her past love of textiles.

Combining dyed wools with vintage silks and felting together with water to create Nuno Felt, she then deconstructs the sheets of work and then reconstructs them, sometimes re felting them with water then once dry  adding hand stitching and extra fabric offcuts if needed to create these unique pieces.
