Flora Isabelle Daly
Flora's work focuses on her strengths of painting, drawing and creating bold compositions with vivid colours.
Flora's main inspiration comes from nature and the beauty found within the unique forms around the world. Her final degree collection focuses on the endemic species of the Galapagos Islands and the rare animals and foliage found there. She uses CAD to create seamless repeat structures which flow in both fashion and interior prints, whilst also experimenting with screen printing techniques such as devorè to add textural interest in her compositions. Flora aims to work in industry as a textile designer, building on her skills and progressing in a company.
