Teaching

I also teach and run workshops across a number of arts universities in design, publishing and illustration. I have taught in various capacities at universities in the UK (and US) since 2007.

    Workshops and short courses

    I create and facilitate a range of workshops and short courses on areas of art and design, to participants of all ages, abilities and backgrounds.

    These workshops stem from aspects of my own work and enable participants to explore new ways of working, thinking, and creating.
