Introducing our new artists: Iryna Pyrozhok

A new year, and a new batch of member artists to our cooperative.
Iryna, who is a textile artist working in wool fibres, is one of our newest members. She makes beautiful felted flowers that seem so lifelike you want to put them into a vase (don't). She also felts tiny little creatures and wool purses bursting with colour.
Please do visit and check out her work in the gift shop.
And yes - you do recognise her. Iryna is also a receptionist in the arts centre, so say Hi! next time you pass her desk.
