Inspiration for these ceramic figures came from an appreciation of the history of art and costume, TV costume dramas, classic books by Jane Austen, Dickens and the Brontes, artists Gustave Klimpt, Alphonse Mucha and Degas and the Art Nouveau movement. The Pied Piper of Hamelin and The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie were also influential, but most important of all are a love of life drawing and observations of children playing, especially with their mothers in playgroups.
