Approach to teaching
My approach to teaching is inclusive. Whilst processes and techniques will be taught, people can work at their own pace in a relaxed and creative environment.
What inspires your own work?
In 2009, I was widowed through suicide. Creating art and participating in the conversations that follow has made survival possible and allowed me to live again.
