Teaching

I believe that you have been created as an amazing, extraordinary individual with your own artist’s voice and unique expression. There has never been another ‘You’ in the history of the world. Your voice is special and we want to hear it.

Everyone has an innate ability to create. Over the years, I’ve discovered that anyone can be taught the skills to make art. It all starts with your heart. Do you have a desire to create? If so, I know when you follow the guidance of a simple framework, you will progress in your abilities and be rewarded with a satisfying collection of original artworks.

I specialise in helping artists express their unique creativity with truly original artwork that comes from their heart.

After working with me, students feel unblocked and confident in their ability to bring an art project from concept to completion.

You are an artist, you have a unique voice. Do you want to create beautiful, original art that expresses who you are?
