Teaching, workshops & mentoring

I’m taking a break from teaching at the moment to recharge and focus on making new work while recovering from illness.

Thanks for your patience and enthusiasm. If you’re on the mailing list, you’ll be first to hear news about my workshops and one-to-one mentoring.

Meanwhile, here’s a taster album from my signature art courses, including:

Observation to Abstraction | Fast and Loose

Blooming Abstract | The Painted Garden

Colour Nuance | Abstract Colour | Mindful Mark-Making

Thirty Works on a Thursday | Body of Work Project

Expressive Life Drawing | Gestural Landscape

Scroll photos from my Oxford studio, Waterperry Gardens (Oxfordshire), Darley House (Derbyshire), Potato Town (Chipping Norton), Arts en Provence (France), Lund Studios (N. Yorkshire), and Oxford Summer School (life drawing).

Ground-breaking. Original, ingenious instruction and exercises. The experimentation with ways of loosening up in Observation to Abstraction is inspiring and fun.

During the Body of Work course it made a real difference to be able to focus on a subject that fascinated me. I was gripped. The course changed my whole approach and has built my confidence no end.
