Describe your approach to teaching:
I teach by showing examples of what I am teaching,
demonstration, verbal description and by supporting personal
practice. I encourage questions and to assist remembering I supply
course notes.
What inspires you own work?
My work is mainly practical such as salad bowls and platters and I
aspire to make them aesthetically pleasing but simple in design. I
aim for continuity of design.
