Description
I teach because I am passionate about teaching and supporting new and developing artists. I started Creative Art Courses in 2010 as I believe I have a unique blend of artistic experience and quality teaching expertise to offer.
I am based close to Manchester city centre, accessible by all public transport, with car parking facilities.
When you book on a course with Creative Art Courses you will experience;
• High quality teaching to nurture your creative spirit, actively encouraging you to find and develop your own artistic voice.
• Your learning and development towards artistic self confidence lies at the heart of my ambitions as a teacher.
• My drawing classes teach you the skills and techniques that provide the springboard to your artistic independence.
