Describe your approach to teaching
I try to meet each individual student at whatever level they are at.  I am passionate about sharing fundamental observational skills in drawing and painting in all mediums. This includes structure, measuring, proportion, tone, colour and perspective. I am grateful to the tutors who taught me so I am keen to pass on the knowledge I have gained over many years.
