Art Classes and workshops

Looking forward to stepping back from the larger art projects that have been completed over the last couple of years to have a chance to focus on my painting and drawing and further developing the local art sessions that have been established over the past couple of years. It is continually exciting to meet new people of all ages who are on their own creative journeys.

Just to let everyone know, there will be a slight price increase on the sessions starting from September 6th 2025 due to an increase in costs and overheads. I have tried to avoid increasing prices for as long as possible but unfortunately it is no longer sustainable to run sessions at current prices.

I’m considering the option of season tickets to be able to offer a slightly reduced rate for those able to commit. Please let me know if you would be interested.

To book a session here are the options below:-

NUNEATON: Art classes Adult & Children / Life Drawings Sessions

NOTTINGHAM: Tuesday Evening Adult Art Class

Bamboo returns for a few creative school projects

It’s that time of the year when the creative bamboo comes out again! This time in the form of a structure for a party in the playground summer fair at St Paul's C of E Primary School in Stockingford, Nuneaton, Warwickshire.

I helped create a sculpture with my great creative friend Phil Eddolls and St Paul’s teacher Ben Trews, that would house the artwork we created with the school children the week before. It is a great way to absorb the creativity into education and connect with the wider community who attended on the day and used it as a place to post their wishes upon a star! Next up is Wembrook Primary School! Watch this space!

Windmill clip at Riversley Park, Nuneaton

 

Footage of my Bamboo Windmill Sculpture which was on display at the Imagine Bamboo day last year at Riversley Park in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. The artworks that were on either side of the mill formed the community art mill where members of the local community contributed their artwork.

Special thanks to filmmaker Chris Cuthbert for the footage and a thank you to the Creative Explorers project, NBBC and fellow local Artists Tim Franklin, Spencer Jenkins and Alisha Millar who also exhibited their bamboo sculptures on the day.

Plus my daughter who was an amazing help and support on the day.

A new year and a re-emergence.

Happy New year to those who celebrate this period of the festive time. It has been a while since I have posted on here and yet I have been wanting to write something on many occasions recently. One reason being extremely distracted and busy with various projects at home and also within my work involving some slight changes in direction. 

A majority of my time has been establishing the art classes that I run between Warwickshire and Nottinghamshire. The other one involves a Bamboo Windmill which I will need a lot of time to process and write about. Not only has it been a journey of learning and discovery, but a whole new way of thinking in my approaches and understanding within the relationship of how we define everything in our society. Creativity is very powerful and can be used as a gradual habitual method of learning.

All will be revealed soon on here and on the separate Windmill Blog I set up for this particular ongoing journey.

In the meantime here is the first video I have set up on my new YouTube Channel. It is a sketch I created of Baxterley Windmill in North Warwickshire which is no longer standing. 

Charlotte Morwenna very kindly wrote this poem inspired by my sketch and is also a great introduction to what I will post soon.

Art Classes and Life drawing sessions

For quite a few years now I have been facilitating and guiding many beginners and improvers on thier own creative journey. I currently hold them in both Nuneaton, Warwickshire and Sherwood in Nottingham. 

They are simply designed for people of all ages, where I try to encourage person centred learning and start their creative pathways within a friendly group environment where they can learn and share off each other without judgement or intimidation. 

A lot of people haven’t picked up a pencil since leaving school either because they were told they weren’t good enough or compared themselves to someone they thought was better. My ethos is to help people embrace their own individuality and discover their own version of mark making in a way that can help enrich confidence, wellbeing and a whole new creative outlook. 

I cover a range of themes alongside individual developments. I see myself as a guide rather than a teacher and with my experiences help you to find your own.

I also facilitate life drawing sessions currently at Wembrook Community Centre in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. These are open to all adults of all abilities and I am there on hand to guide if requested and host the evening.

All the sessions are pay as you go and you can book as and when it fits within your daily life.

Below are the links to find more info and to book a space:

I also provide separate one to one sessions / private art classes at my art studio / Art workshops.  Get in touch for more information.
