[edit] Profile
I studied fine art to degree level at Bristol and completed a PGCE course in visual arts at Bretton Hall in Yorkshire, subsequently teaching art at a secondary school in London. I have been teaching adults for 7 years now at various adult education centres and also teach some school-age children.
I am a practising artist and exhibit paintings locally including having an open house during Lewes Artwave Festival each year. I work in acrylic and mixed media on paper, board and canvas, with layers of acrylic paint, building up intense colours and textures sometimes with the addition of different papers collaged to the surface. The painting process usually develops into a particular landscape and or memory. The landscape is frequently somewhere local but may also be imagined. I also create mosaic art works to commission and enjoy the contrast that working with broken pieces of glass, china and ceramic provides to painting.
[edit] Classes at the Paddock
The weekly sessions concentrate on developing drawing, painting and mixed media skills, with demonstrations of techniques. New students are welcome including beginners. Any specialist equipment is provided.
The classes are lively and stimulating with whole class teaching, demonstrations and discussion together with individual guidance. Usually a theme is taken for each term and may include a visit to a gallery or a museum.
There are regular one day workshops at weekends in both painting and mosaics.
