I believe that art is for everyone. I have loved making art with families at drop-in workshops in galleries, adults of all abilities on my community well-being courses, teachers at my Continuing Professional Development sessions in schools and at Yorkshire Sculpture Park, adults and children with additional needs in various settings, people in hospices, school pupils in the classroom and on art trips, young artists at holiday camps, secondary-school students in special needs schools, undergraduates and postgraduates researching traditional fresco methods on my specialist painting courses, adult artists pushing their practice on my experimental PRACTICEXPERIMENT course, and all kinds of creatives visiting my studio for bespoke tutorials in painting-as-process. 

In addition to running workshops and courses independently, I also design and deliver sessions for Yorkshire Sculpture Park, The Hepworth Wakefield, Everybody Arts in Halifax, University of Huddersfield and University of Leeds. 

All my workshops are about experimentation with materials and methods rather than planned outcomes. By enabling intuitive investigation via my process-focused approach I can help people to make their own creative discoveries.

My next workshop for adults is a Continuing Professional Development session for all educators of all groups: Explorations in Colour, Sculpture and Installation at Yorkshire Sculpture Park on 15th February, 2025.
