Describe your apporach to teaching:
I encourage students to experiment with colour and texture, using
unusual tools and approaches, to unleash a sense of freedom and
unbounded mark making. This facilitates a greater enjoyment and
playfulness, building confidence to push the boundaries of
practice.
What inspires your own work?
I am inspired by colour and form, particularly the emotional
resonance I experience when absorbed in the landscape. I work
intuitively, allowing all that I have seen and captured to memory
find its own way onto the canvas.
