Maker's bio

Although I graduated with a BA(Hons) in Fine Art (painting) from West Surrey College of Art and obtained an MA Fine Art (sculpture) from the Arts University Bournemouth, I have always enjoyed working with textiles and have done so for more than 45 years. I am a practising artist and exhibit regularly as a member of the salon group of Dorset Visual Arts, Wessex Contemporary Arts and Bruton Arts Society as well as in larger collective exhibitions.

Wendy reviewed: Textile landscape workshop in Dorset

"Lovely day course with Imogen. A well organised and supplied amount of necessary materials. A process new to me explained well. Examples shown, to inspire ideas. Lots of encouragement. I would recommend this as a really useful method to any people interested in textiles. The haff and ammenities were perfect. Thank you Imogen. Brilliant!!"

Imogen Bittner Studio responded:

"Thank you very muchWendy. It was an extremely pleasant and productive day for me too! I am so pleased you enjoyed it and made such good progress and wish you well in your future creations. Best wishes, Imogen "

Cindy reviewed: Textile landscape workshop in Dorset

"Imogen is a very talented artist and teacher. She has a gentle and patient approach which filled everyone in the workshop with confidence. I have taught art myself for 30 years so I know a good teacher when I see one. I particularly valued her extensive range of materials which she provided. I was also grateful for the choice of images she offered us for inspiration. A lovely day I highly recommend and will be doing another one during the course of the coming year. (Great cake too!) "

Vicky Bilton reviewed: Textile landscape workshop in Dorset

"Wonderful day. Given heaps of inspiration and piles of fabric at the start. Left to our own devices as to the design/ content of the piece, but guven muchvadvice andxencouragement during the day "

Imogen Bittner Studio responded:

"A wonderfully intuitive response to the subject matter in the choice of fabric, colour and stitching. Vicky’s seascape evolved with confidence during the day and she left with an exciting and beautifully thought out piece of work."
