​ and workshops
With over 25 year experience in the arts and over 18 in running art workshops in the community I am happy to offer art workshops in many creative disciplines individually tailored to you or your clients needs.
I have experience with all ages and most needs. I have also worked in Further Education delivery UAL L3 teaching to 16 plus years.
Since I have also been printmaking in some form or other since 2007 I now offer a programme of weekend printmaking courses in Linocut, drypoint and Collagraph printmaking techniques. I offer this in small groups in my studio in the lovely small town setting of Reepham, Norfolk.
As an Artist I am always trying to further my practice by regularly making my own work and exhibiting locally and nationally. I am a strong believer in keeping my hand in as it can genuinely help me deliver a sound teaching practice. Art for me is a way of life and learning is also beneficial to our well being and self esteem. We also hopefully meet interesting people along the way!

HAVE YOU EVER MADE A COLLAGRAPH PRINT?
Collagraph comes from the Greek word Koll or Kolla meaning the glue and graph which means to draw.
It is like Collage in that you create an image by sticking on your chosen materials. The main difference between a Collagraph and a Collage is that you use the finished Collage as a Collagraph printing plate. You force ink into the texture on the plate, then Remove the excess. The final stage involves damp paper being 'lined up' or 'registered' with your collagraph plate and run through a traditional Roller Press or by working a Slama Hand Press over your paper & plate.
