woven willow creations, created with love by hampshire based Artist Jacqueline Rolls
welcome
Creating with willow is such a special thing it is like drawing in air.
Growing up in a time where making dens in the hedgerows, picking blackberries looking under stones for crabs and sucking the nectar from nettle flowers was quite a normal thing to do, it is not suprising that I am drawn to woking in this way.
Living on the edge of a city where space is limited I am lucky that I was offereed a small patch of land to grow my own organic willow on however this is never enough so I source the rest of the materials that I use from the lovely growers based on the Somerset Levels

Here is just a small selection of the art that i have created over the years I love creating works that have their own life and story to tell as well as peices that are more abstract in nature inspired by a experience or a place. If you would like to find out more about these as well as my other creations please visit my gallery and section on public art projects
