My workshops are all about building creative confidence. Dynamic, joyful, accessible, informative, inspiring and achievable.

I have a formal background in design and over the past 30 years have developed a diverse practice in the visual arts. I reckon that flexing our creative muscles and building our confidence in ourselves and in others is a direct way to building better mental well being, and in turn, more resilient and dynamic communities.

How this started? Twenty years ago I was hospitalised flat on my back for 9 long difficult weeks. I vowed that when I was out of there I would pursue more of the things that made me happy. Do the things that really meant something to me. Revaluing my visual arts practice came out of this and it lead to a big shift in how I think about my own creativity and what I might do with it, to give it meaning to me and to others.

So in the past 20 years all kinds of great projects have come my way via my arts practice. Including working with government bodies, corporate bonding events, community development activities, invites to schools, collaborating with nature conservation bodies and best of all, meeting and working with so many 'raw beginners', who have then gone on to be inspired to find space in their lives for more creativity.
