A fan of folklore, legend and fairytales, the movie ‘Labyrinth’ gave Alexandra a lifelong love of the artwork of Brian and Wendy Froud. The documentary, ‘The Making of Labyrinth’ led her to a career making models, props and special effects for TV and films. Alexandra is now an author too! Her debut novel, The Stitchwort Curse, is a teenage fantasy adventure about an eccentric family of witches living under a curse in their ruined, haunted mansion.
