Workshops.
Advance your creative skills with a science-based, structured, and long-term approach to artistic development.
As a professional art conservator and artist, I bring deep knowledge of art technology to the table. My goal is to help students make conscious choices that elevate their work, while understanding science behind it.
In my workshops, you’ll gain the skills to master colour, make intentional artistic decisions, and create with confidence. But it’s more than just technique—I’ll help you build the right mindset, set achievable goals, and develop skills that last a lifetime. Art is a marathon, not a sprint, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
I provide the support, inspiration, and hands-on learning you need to stay motivated and see real progress in your creative journey.
