I work as an artist and educator around Cheshire and Greater Manchester running a business that provides educational art workshops.
All workshops are tailored to meet a group's needs. I have worked in all key stages - from nursery through to Higher Education and including special needs. My workshops address all aspects of Art and Design within the National Curriculum and target a knowledge and skills based approach to learning, in a confident and enjoyable atmosphere.
I studied sculpture and painting at the Slade School of Fine Art, and have been painting and drawing for as long as I can remember.
I am CRB checked and have adequate public liability cover for all art workshops.

Self Portraits
A great workshop for encouraging children to draw difficult subjects. Pupils are encouraged to be brave and adventurous with their drawing tools and embrace the many mistakes they might make along the way.
Each child works from a printed digital photograph of their own face. Pupils produce several drawings that range from purely observational drawings to drawings that use small parts of the photographic portrait as a guide for scale and composition.
