About Me

Arty Artisans was set up by myself after having my first child so I could share my Art skills and knowledge with others independently. ​​I have been a teacher of Art & Design since 2009.

I have Qualified Teacher Status and am an Arts Award Adviser for the Bronze, Silver and Gold Arts Awards and I am registered with the AQA Unit Award Scheme.

I hold a PGCE in Art & Design Education from the Institute of Education in London (IOE), a BA Honors degree is Spatial Design from Falmouth University, a Diploma in 3D Art & Design and a Diploma in Art and Design from Richmond Upon Theme Collage (RUTC).

​​I love being experimental, creative and joyful. I enjoy experimenting and exploring a wide range of materials and subject matter.

I take great pride and joy watching my student’s confidence grow alongside building and developing their skills and knowledge of a subject tailored to suit their interests, aspirations and inspirations.

I have a very relaxed, professional and enthusiastic approach to teaching Art.

​​I believe there is an artist inside all of us
