Teaching & Workshops

My teaching practice sits alongside my work as a visual artist, extending my interest in memory, early experience and the role of creative processes in emotional expression and connection.

I design and lead creative workshops and programmes across healthcare, community, education and organisational settings, including workplace wellbeing sessions and artist-led creative programmes within organisational and volunteer contexts, where I design and lead the creative elements of larger initiatives. These range from one-off sessions to longer-term projects, and are often developed in response to specific groups, environments, and contexts.

Workshops combine skills-based learning with exploratory, process-led approaches, supporting both creative development and personal engagement. Alongside this, I lead larger participatory projects where teaching, making and collaboration are embedded within the development of public artworks and shared visual outcomes.

Adult & Community Workshops

I design and lead creative programmes for adult learners across community, healthcare, wellbeing, cultural and organisational settings. Workshops are tailored to each group and often explore textiles, mixed media, sensory processes, memory, identity and mindful making.

Sessions combine technical skill development with exploratory approaches, supporting confidence, creative expression and wellbeing.

I also deliver workshops as part of wider commissioned projects and partnerships, where learning and participation contribute to larger creative outcomes.

Children, Families & Private Workshops

I deliver creative workshops for children, young people and families across community, education, and private settings. Sessions are playful, accessible and process-led, encouraging creativity, confidence and self-expression.

Workshops can include drawing, textiles, mixed media and sensory art activities, with a focus on exploration, storytelling and creative development.

I work with schools, enrichment programmes and inclusive and SEND settings, adapting sessions to support a range of learning styles and needs.

Public Art, Healthcare & Organisational Projects

I design and lead large-scale, artist-led projects across healthcare, civic, and organisational settings, with a particular focus on public-facing environments.

My work explores how visual art and participatory processes can support reflection, connection and emotional engagement within shared spaces. This includes the development of murals, installations, textiles and visual environments, often created through collaborative processes that invite participants to contribute ideas, imagery, and personal narratives.

Projects are developed in response to each context, with learning, making and skill-sharing embedded within the process. I work with a wide range of participants, including patients, staff, community groups and organisational teams, creating opportunities for creative engagement alongside the development of meaningful visual outcomes.

This includes workplace wellbeing sessions and commissioned creative programmes within organisational and volunteer contexts, where I provide creative direction, lead delivery, and translate collective input into resolved visual outcomes.

I lead projects from initial concept through to final realisation, including creative direction, facilitation and project management. This involves developing concepts, coordinating delivery, managing materials and budgets and working in collaboration with partners and stakeholders to ensure both a high-quality artistic outcome and a considered participant experience.

My work is particularly focused on healthcare and wellbeing contexts, where creative practice can support emotional expression, reflection, and shared experience.

Recent projects include large-scale participatory artworks and installations developed within healthcare and community settings, including an Arts Council England funded project exploring the psychological dynamics of narcissistic abuse and an intergenerational quilting project translating personal memory into shared visual form. Across these projects, collective input is translated into cohesive, engaging, and human-centred visual environments.
