Learning basic and advanced art skills doesn’t have to be tedious or uninspiring. I love teaching people how to work on their goals by combining technical exercises with creative, dynamic projects. Art is more than just a skill; it’s a healing mindset.

I have both shorter workshops and extensive courses available; whatever suits your creative need right now. I give feedback and support in my safe, private Facebook group!

I love sharing my thoughts, studio and projects in something less fleeting than social media. You’ll also find a bunch of free resources such as videos and reference images here. Your feedback always makes me feel good so leave a comment if you’d like.

    If you had to think of a posture, that would visualise this time in your life, what would it be? Not the smile you put on when people come through the door. Or the sit-straight-shoulders-back-attitude at work. But the way your soul sits, while you move through life in all these different forms. What would…
