It was my inspiring mum, Sue, who first learned the casting technique during an afternoon workshop in London with the artist Rachel Dein. What started as a personal project to cast her own stunning garden in Fife, has grown arms and legs in the last four years.

Imprint Casts, the business, was born from an increasing demand from friends and family for her botanical tiles. I took over from her in 2020 and now manage all the making, sales, marketing, and everything else (small indie business wearing all the hats type situation!) but still need the nod of approval from the matriarch before signing off on any casts.
