I am an emerging artist specialising in material and process exploration through sculpture, drawing and craft. I have my own personal practice alongside teaching art and crafts on a freelance basis. I have been a freelance artist educator since 2015, and I have worked with many organisations across Scotland, planning and delivering unique creative workshops. I have a lot of experience in orchestrating public art, running workshops and working with the public on creative projects.
