I am an experienced art and photography teacher with over 14 years of teaching experience, working with people of all ages and abilities. I love helping others build confidence in their creativity, whether they're complete beginners or more experienced artists. My workshops are relaxed, supportive and focused on enjoying the process as much as the final piece, with plenty of guidance on techniques like layering, texture and colour.

Alongside teaching, I'm a practicing artist inspired by nature and wildlife, and I care deeply about the environment - something that naturally comes through my work. I create contemporary paintings that combine detailed animal subjects with expressive, textured backgrounds. In my workshops, I encourage people to connect with nature, experiment freely, and develop their own unique style in a way that feels personal and meaningful.

Available week days from 10-2pm and weekends 12-8pm. I offer private tutoring including school age guidance and teaching up to A Level, developing portfolios for exam requirements and also applications to university. I am happy to do weddings, special events and celebrations. I can create portraits, pet portraits and other large artworks in any particular style or medium.
