About me
Experienced art practitioner & tutor with a BA Hons degree in Multidisciplinary design and MA in Art Therapy. After I graduated my work was exhibited at Top Drawer Gift Fair in London where agencies were interested in marketing and selling my range of children's design and products.. I have taught GCSE Art/design in Pupil Referral Units and adult education art courses in FE since 1994 and finished teaching last July in order to focus on my own artwork. Last year I returned to illustration and greetings card/product designs which I sold at craft fairs and by self publishing a children's book 'The Little Christmas Angel' which I promoted in a local newspaper. I am looking for work as an artist, art tutor, art therapy jobs and illustration work.
