Biography
With a BA in Fine Art, an MA in Ceramics and a background in
printmaking, I have a cross-disciplinary and materials-focused approach
to making, within Fine Art Painting. In terms of my own work I am
interested in collections, the nature and physicality of art making
itself, and the ways in which object and process interrelate.
Leading practical masterclasses of a professional, technical and
ideas-based nature has become a real passion, and in the past seven
years I have had the privilege of working with diverse age ranges within
a variety of educational contexts and independent organisations. I have
previously worked in technician roles on a Foundation course in
Gloucestershire, a school in Bristol and as a graduate and cover
technician at Cardiff School of Art and Design. Outside these realms I
have worked and travelled with artists including Dan Welden and Peter
Randall-Page on projects, commissions and workshops, all of which have
shaped the way I think about art and design in its broadest sense. I
enjoy working with others – artists and art students alike – to achieve
practical understanding, and to encourage a way of thinking through
engaging with process.
