Wildlife Workshops

For more relaxed and self-led workshops, I teach Wildlife Illustration which begins with a watercolour demonstration, followed by an open session where attendees can either follow my step-by-steps for a badger, fox or moth - or choose their own adventure! I’m on hand to guide each attendee with technique help and ideas for their illustrations. This is a great workshop for groups of friends who want to catch up, as there are less ‘follow this step!’ demonstrations from myself, or experienced painters who want to unwind in a lovely venue with a drink and enjoy a quiet session of creativity.

I’ve taught this workshop at the following venues:

• Overdraft Southampton

• John Lewis, Southampton

John Lewis

I had the pleasure of running a pop-up shop in John Lewis, Southampton for a week where I displayed and sold my products and hosted a different workshop each evening. Attendees joined me in the West Quay store for an hour of relaxing watercolour painting.

LWD Networking Event

I collaborated with local group LWD (Ladies ,Wine and Design) on one of their networking events in Southampton where I hosted a wildlife illustration workshop where attendees can choose between one of my Art Club tutorials to paint their own nature illustrations!

Art Club!

Monday evenings are your new designated ‘me-time’ moments where you can switch off for an hour, learn something new and explore different themes each week! All you need is a Zoom account, paper and whatever art supplies you have - even a biro! I’ll demonstrate various techniques to tailor to your materials.

Art Club evolved over 2020 from a small series called Biro Botanicals (which was initially a placeholder offering while we were in lockdown!) to a regular Monday night online club! Each session is £5 and an easygoing session with a different theme each week.
