I decided to leave secondary school teaching after 22 years in order to offer a range of creative workshops and to further develop my own artistic endeavours. This is my third year of being part of Warwickshire Open Studios and I am excited to present a wide range of arts and crafts in this beautiful countryside setting. Colour and texture in nature is my main source of inspiration and I relish exploring my responses using many different media and techniques. I usually have several sketchbooks for you to look through in order to see how my ideas develop. Refreshments are available at the venue and any donations for these will be given to Shipston Home Nursing. There is plenty of free parking, everything is on one level / no steps and there are toilet facilities. I also deliver creative workshops at this venue so please look out for upcoming dates.
