Lisa Fretwell
My name is Lisa E Fretwell. I have been teaching art, glass and textile techniques for over 25 years. In the past, I have exhibited my work in New York, had a touring exhibition around the UK, and exhibited in Gallery and non-Gallery venues in Hertfordshire, Leicester, London and Northamptonshire. I was involved in the publishing of a new book called ‘Antarctic Atlas,’ in 2020 which includes my hand drawn illustrations. I am currently making hand drawn illustrated cards to create funding for a Hedgehog charity called Hoggywobbles in Cambridgeshire. Since 2012 I have been teaching Art History, Stained Glass and Felt Making in Cambridge. I sold some original illustrations with Bonham's Auctioneer's from our book, Antarctic Atlas, at St. Bride's Foundation, London in June 2023.
