Describe your approach to teaching
My approach is friendly and inclusive, sharing my own methods and experiments, demonstrating and showing examples but offering opportunities to ‘learn through doing’ as soon as possible.
What inspires your own work?
The unexpected and extraordinary in ordinary life, live theatre, dance, poetry and an eclectic mix of visual art from ancient times to the present.
