I'm a versatile visual artist based in Lancaster, Lancashire and work in a variety of mediums, both traditional and digital.
I've spent a chunk of my life as a graphic designer, specialising in brand ID and illustration, but painting has always been my number 1 passion.
I love to paint with watercolours, I love how the water interacts and paints with you.
There's so many different techniques with watercolour, it's an easy medium to start with, but also the hardest to master too, although my classes are aimed at beginners.
The emphasis with my classes is on fun and relaxing. I'm very patient and empathic and just want to share my knowledge and skills with other folk to show them how enjoyable art can be, and how much you can learn without any prior experience at all. Art can be a very therapeutic outlet, and it benefits your wellbeing too.
