I am an artist specialising in community arts, creative facilitation and project management.
I am most interested in working with individuals and communities to make artwork collaboratively. I facilitate workshops and design projects which help to develop self-confidence, create high quality artworks and bring people together. I work across most visual art forms and am always open to playing with new ideas and techniques. Check out the projects I’ve been involved with recently here.
I spend half of my week supporting amazing artists, planning and taking care of collaborative projects at the arts and kindness charity People United. I’ve managed all kinds of projects each with its own story and special moments. You can read about a selection of them here.
