I nurture the creative potential of children and cover all techiques and skills of art. Exciting and imaginatively creative sessions for children at any stage of their development. Children and young people learn skills in drawing, painting, mixed media, collage, textiles, illustration, photography, printmaking, installation, sculpture and theatre/performance. Lessons are bespoke for the needs of each child. They develop the child's imagination and encourage creative thinking and problem solving skills. The lessons improve a child's confidence and nurture independent creative thinkers. Lessons can also take place in galleries, museums, parks, gardens and other sites of interest. I teach children from age three upwards, young people and adults. I teach individuals and groups of up to four children. Many of my students have achieved art scholarships to schools such as: Wellington College, Bradfield, Queens College, Harrodian, Sherbourne. I teach GSCE and A level Art. Past students have gone on to Yale, Leeds University, Durham University, Oxford University, Edinburgh University and more. I am a practicing artist and I exhibit in the UK, Europe and the US. My teaching has been written about in The Sunday Telegraph Magazine, The Financial Times, The London Standard and The Notting Hill Post.
