Emma Gluyas, Textile Artist- Arty-Em Gear (customized clothing)
Emma has designed her own clothing label, customizing clothes, hats, bags and shoes. She paints directly on to the fabric, embroiders into it and sometimes dyes the clothes to make original one off pieces that are highly wearable and affordable. Each piece of clothing is unique, which is part of its appeal. Emma prefers to source her clothing from good quality second hand shops or markets, where she will work to a theme and design some of her magic on to them.  Emma graduated from Coventry University with a B. A. (Hons) in Art and Craft Studies. She is also a qualified teacher of adults, with a Certificate in Life Long Learning from Warwick University. For more information email: artyem@hotmail.co.uk
