Teaching & Creating
I believe that one feeds the other
I enjoy encouraging Art students to succeed at GCSE and A level.
I am keen to prepare students wishing to continue their studies and apply to university and have supported many successful applications to Art Foundation and creative degree courses.
Whether you would like support with your GCSE or A level Art course, Uni application or want to develop and refine your practice, I can provide tutorials and workshops designed to inspire your ideas and develop your creative skills.
Tutorials
One to one tutorials are a great way to develop and refine your skills for a particular purpose. Whether you wish to prepare for an application to university, focus on learning a technique or ways of developing creative ideas, tutorials can be designed to cater for your individual requirements.
Get in touch to discuss your interests and tailor a tutorial or short course just for you.
