Helena Newcombe | Helena Newcombe Art
Helena has a Diploma of Fine arts, specialising in small embroidered mixed media artworks. She draws inspiration from her environment and the rare quiet moments in life. Her work often features abstract florals inspired by natures intrinsic imperfections. She likes to evoke fragility for the viewer. A vulnerability reflected in the medium of choice and mirrored by the subject matter.
Her love of textiles started when she was very young, teaching herself to sew on her grandmothers antique Singer sewing machine. Embroidery was a natural progression, a slow meditative practice that both calms and inspires her.
