Using waste plastics as creative materials holds multiple benefits:
free, versatile, liberating and environmentally sustainable.
As an exhibiting artist with over 25 years teaching experience I am keen to share my passion for using waste plastics, teach new skills and techniques and provide a supportive environment for creative play.
I work with individuals, small groups, whole schools or organisations. I have worked across all ages from 3 to 93.
I have taught how to use waste plastics for textile and sculpture, jewellery making, collage, printing and more. I provide materials but often encourage participants to collect their own as well
Get in touch for more information about upcoming classes, availability, possibilities and workshop costs.
I can also offer teaching in a range of other creative areas including -
- Artist's books - paper folded books/greeting cards
- Zine making
- Slow stitch for creative calm
- Basketry - twined, coiled, assembled
- Yarn bombing
- Mono printing - gelli plate, cyanotype
As far as possible the materials for these classes are sourced
