Meet
the Artist - Sally Hare
I have always had a passion for fabrics, sewing, craft and design.
Recognising this need for self expression has prompted me to make
a career change from the corporate world.
With
the advantage of a solid background in marketing, sales and my artistic
flair, my new venture Happy Hare successfully caters for a diverse
range of clientele.
My
creations are colourful, exotic and textured - I call them 'wearable
art'. Each piece is unique, original, crafted to perfection and
incorporates the use of natural fibres such as silk, cotton and
wool.
The
'wearable art' range includes bags, belts, hats, scarves, shawls
and whimsical wraps. Customer orders for particular colour toning
can be catered for.
This
year I have decided to enter my work into competitions, exhibitions
and put myself into more workshops to learn more. I love being around
like minded artisans.
