Soft Pastel Classes:
My classes are held at the Māniatoto Arts Centre, Reade St, Ranfurly only.
I no longer travel to teach.
Dates and info are below the images.
Please apply to join my classes by emailing 6 images of your recent drawings and/or paintings, along with a short statement of your creative goals and what you hope to learn from me, to [email protected]
NOTE: I am always delighted and honoured to know my pupils admire my paintings enough to want to attend my classes, but it's not ok to copy my paintings and try to sell them.
