Other activities…
I conduct workshops for children and adults. I like these to be creative, exploratory, inventive – and fun.
Apart from single sessions on everything from aboriginal art to rangoli patterns, funky frames to African mud prints, recent highlights include a 6-week handmade personal/memory book project with two primary schools, and a young people’s project resulting in a large art work for the teenage section of Grantham library (see the picture). I recently worked with infants on Seeing Dragons in the Clouds, producing a display to accompany the current travelling exhibition at the Hub, Sleaford. Also at the Hub in February was an all-day family workshop on African mud cloths. In April (half term) I will be running two family sessions there on creating imaginative frames and mounts.
I’ve also been recently involved in adult collage workshops for the Ropewalk Gallery, Rufford Art Society and elsewhere. Please contact me if you are interested in workshops on papermaking, collage, colour, introductory felt-making and almost anything experimental!
