​

I am a fully qualified Art teacher with almost 20 years experience, as well as being a practicing artist, and I'm passionate about engaging and enriching young people with the arts. Art is not only a source of beauty and expression, but it helps to encourage many key skills in children that are crucial for their educational and emotional development, as well as being lots of fun!

I currently offer a class for children aged 10 and up, running on Wednesdays after school in 6 week blocks. Each block of classes is based loosely around a theme, and children are given the opportunity to explore and experiment with different materials and processes within this theme, such as drawing and painting, printing, clay and textiles.
