​ART

workshops

I enjoy delivering workshops to children and adults. Workshops are fun and a great way to learn a new skill, practice an old skill, meet new folk and relax.

I have experience of delivering art and craft workshops including :



* after school art club

* home education art group

* family workshops at events and festivals

* workshops at Telford Mind

* craft activities at Button&Bear Bookshop, Shrewsbury

* school projects

* community workshops

* weekly sessions at The Skills and Enterprise Hub, Telford



There are many themes that make for interesting workshops including The Romans,  different  cultural celebrations, animals, the seasons, different artists and styles, pattern and design, recycling materials and the use of a variety of art and craft mediums.

A communal mosaic workshop with the Open Arted group at Telford Mind

Each person in the group made a design for a large scale mosaic. Rather than choose one person's design we decided to take a piece from each design and put them together to create a new image. I then drew out the completed design on paper and transferred it onto two large boards.

The resulting image is a joyous mix which has created a surreal, dreamlike landscape that seems full of hope.
