ABOUT THE COURSES
The courses are limited to four people and will take place in the studio in Macclesfield. You can sign up for just one course (4-10 weeks) or you may wish to attend on an ongoing basis to immerse in your practice with the ongoing support.
As such this will be an evolving class and the course content will be tailored accordingly based on the dynamics, learning aspirations and needs of the group, as well as the focus of the particular course. My focus is your creative development and how I can share the knowledge and skills that I have acquired over many years to help you to develop skills and creative self-confidence to grow as an artist.
Suitable for: Adults (Age 19+) No prior creative experience is needed. This class is suitable for all levels of ability, just a keen enthusiasm to learn and explore.
