Book a Workshop.
Why?
When it comes to my art workshops, I have two main intentions: my aim is to help you learn and develop artistic skills and techniques, but I am also a true believer in how beneficial art can be as a way of embracing calmness, expression and releasing tension and worries.
I want to you to leave having created some fantastic pieces of art, having learnt and developed skills, but also having felt and experienced the calmness and serenity that art can bring.
I have 10 years of experience teaching art in secondary schools and I am DBS checked. I cater all workshops to the individuals attending, working at the pace that suits them, providing a safe space to ask questions. My aim is to teach the art processes and techniques of choice, whilst nurturing creativity and imagination.
