Art Tutorial Videos!

I’ve finally managed to start putting together some art tutorial videos for children and adults. I’m aiming to post a video once a week, demonstrating some illustration techniques and arty ideas to keep you occupied during this strange time in our lives.

You can find the videos on my Instagram, Facebook or on YouTube (YouTube videos have subtitles if needed).

Please let me know if you have any suggestions for future tutorials and demos.

I do hope you enjoy the videos and please do share your artwork with me…I’d love to see what you create!

Crystal Palace Artists’ Open House 2020

What a brilliant weekend! After a difficult day on Saturday with visitors dodging the sleet showers, everything came together on Sunday as the sun came out. It was brilliant to share my artwork and talk to visitors about my workshops and I enjoyed meeting new people and welcoming back some familiar faces. We even managed to just about get through all of the cake, with a little help from my in-house cake eating team : )
