Workshops & Projects

I have always been really passionate about Art as therapy, which led me to work with all kinds of different people and on mental health wards and hospitals around London. I was lucky enough to work with and learn from an amazing Art Therapist, which led me to being accepted to study at Goldsmiths to do an MA in Art Psychotherapy…….but I wasn`t quite ready to be a therapist, so I moved to Sydney to spend one blissful year making Art in the sun!

As a result of all my experience of working with many different groups of people; my community work as an Artist is really important to my practice and in September 2017 I was very happy to qualify as an Integrative Psychotherapist.

I have over ten years of experience of working as a freelance Artist, some of the projects I have developed and facilitated are; Banardos group , Start Arts on Prescription workshops in Salford , New Ghosts Project, East Lancashire Arts on Prescription projects in Clitheroe and Burnley, Tipp project with young mums in Salford, Open shop Project at Haworth Gallery and The Talking Tower exhibition.

Lace donation….


I had the most generous donation of lace before christmas from Fraulein Annie…..thanks so much! I led my first Pattern and laser cutting workshop last week, which will run for twelve weeks in Burnley as part of their Art on Prescription initiative. We designed patterns using the lace donated. I`ll keep you updated about what we get up to, we`ll be making lots of different laser cut items from stencils to jewellery.

Young mums in Salford….


I have been working on a lovely project with Tipp to make new artwork for the new building, 42nd Street, in Manchester, that just opened last night. I worked with the young mums to create acrylic jewellery for them to take home and a mirror designed by all the group members to go in the new building. Here are some of the designs and finished jewellery….
