Workshops

I find immense satisfaction from my craft and also in teaching it to others. I am experienced in running workshops in schools and with Community Groups, many of the projects I run result in the installation of a permanent artwork.

I run workshops for children and adults of all ages, in a variety of environments. These involve how to use creative processes to produce original pieces of art as well as the use of various tools.

All my school projects are designed to be cross-curricular, and can be directly linked with current key stage learning.

These galleries show a selection of work produced at some of these workshops, from small sculptures suitable for display to larger pieces which are the combination of many participants work which have been permanently installed in school grounds or community buildings.

Clay Workshops

Clay is a wonderful material to work with, and is particularly enjoyed by younger children and older people. Its soft and tactile nature gives it a wide appeal, and can used to create a wide variety of forms.

I have run a number of workshops using clay with visually impaired groups, some of which have been used in the process of teaching braille.
