Workshops & Mentoring

Creative Workshops for All Ages & Abilities

I have over 20 years teaching in Art and Design from children to adults. This includes being course leader for Foundation Art and Design at City College Manchester, founding a Contemporary Art Practice Degree at UCEN Manchester. In 2022 my career pathway changed and I became a full time artist. Since this time I have become the school artist at Delamere SEN primary in Trafford. I have become a specialist in creative arts with children with special educational needs.

I am able to offer creative workshops in a wide variety of arts disciplines to all ages and abilities.

Including-

Adults, creative wellness and meditation, life drawing, printmaking as well as bespoke specialist workshops.

Schools and young people, specialist creative arts workshops for children and young adults with SEN, workshops on my creative practice and much more.

Since 2022, I’ve expanded my lifelong passion for nurturing creativity into bespoke artist mentoring—blending decades of teaching expertise with my experience as an artist. Please get in touch for more information.
