I am a textile artist and designer maker of nuno felted and stitched textile images; and unique accessories: handmade, using painted and hand dyed silk, upcycled sari silk, scrim, and merino wool,
I live in South Devon, inspired and influenced by the changing aspects of its rural landscape, sea and sky, and as a member of Sustainable Dawlish (Transition) my art increasingly focuses on aspects of the climate and nature crisis, documenting and responding to the challenges we all face.
I am a founder member of Creative South West, a not for profit organisation that supports established and emerging textile artists, and part of Make South West’s Green Maker Initiative.

Carolyn Ballard Bio

I am pleased to be taking part in Open Studios at TAAG Gallery, in Teignmouth in September 2026, alongside other talented members of Devon Artist Network.

If you are interested in learning how to nuno felt, I teach workshops to individuals and small groups from my home studio in Dawlish. Do get in touch to book a workshop.
