I am a mixed media artist with a background in teaching. I draw my inspiration from nature and my surroundings. After graduating with an arts degree, I trained as specialist Art and Design educator. I have been teaching adults and children for eight years. I have experience in a wide range of media including ceramics, printmaking, graphic design and photography. I continue to teach young people and adults and I have now established my own studio in the beautiful North Norfolk countryside.
