How would you describe your approach to
teaching?
Every student comes with different expectations and levels of
experience. I enjoy helping them fulfil their potential using the
materials and creative techniques available in the workshop.
What inspires your own work?
I am particularly inspired by the unusual beauty that can be found
in agricultural debris and rural paraphernalia, but also the craft
process which continually leads to new discoveries
