About my Unique

I have broken all the basics of picture making into three 3-hour lessons, these lessons can be done in one block or individually. . .

Extension Courses
If you like, you can follow up with extension courses, where we can cover subject matter and techniques to suit your preferences. These courses will enhance and develop your unique style, whilst constantly referring back to the original core courses.
I am often asked what medium I teach?
This is more than a medium.
I teach the grammar, spelling and punctuation of art…
the psychology and physics of how we see.
I work with a specialist acrylic that can behave like watercolour or oil…
but the medium is only the vehicle.
It’s the knowledge that gives you the skill…
and that transfers to any medium.
Your Personal Potential
I will help you to draw out your full potential, as I draw your attention to the things you have always known subconsciously but perhaps never understood consciously. Let me show you how to observe differently, see life differently, and yes, draw and paint differently from anything you previously believed possible for yourself.
