I bring over 20 years of illustration and design experience to my teaching, with the goal of making art accessible and enjoyable for all. My style combines deep expertise with a friendly, encouraging approach that has made my online courses wildly popular, reaching over 160,000 students worldwide. These classes are designed for a wide audience, from beginners to advanced artists, emphasising practical skills, creative exploration, and personal expression.

Beyond my online teaching, my popular in-person workshops and retreats take me around England and beyond, to such colourful places as Italy, Morocco, and Vietnam. I’m a champion for the use of sketchbooks as a tool for artistic growth and inspiration. As a self-taught watercolorist, I value the process of continuous learning and discovery, sharing my journey and insights through my sketchbooks filled with many years of watercolour explorations.

I’m an advocate for the art of going with the flow, embracing the spontaneity and happy accidents that can unlock more expressive and vibrant creations. With a light, intuitive approach, I hope to inspire my students to explore their creativity and find joy in their artistic journey.
