Sonia Hawes

	About the Artist
	Sonia is a visual artist and writer living in Northamptonshire. She is a qualified Teacher, Youth Worker and Adult Education Tutor who enjoys working with people of all ages. She worked for twelve years in arts administration and has made a large number of contacts across the whole spectrum of the arts. She has been involved in a number of arts projects and artist residencies as well as curating contemporary art and craft exhibitions for twelve years at Daventry Museum. Sonia's interest in pyrography began in the early 1980s when her husband bought her a kit for Christmas. It was a craft ideally suited to her love of drawing and use of natural materials. She exhibits work from time to time although she works mainly to commission, pieces for special occasions such as births or marriages are especially popular. Her latest venture, a video on pyrography, is now available from Janik.
