Experience

Lisa has been a practicing artist and designer since 1980, working in the graphic design and publishing industries in her early career. She has been a teacher in adult education for the last 12 years. She is a member of a printmaking co-operative called The Print Circle and has exhibited annually for the past 7 years with them.

Teaching Style

Drawing is a bodily, tactile activity that expresses a personal response to a subject. Lisa believes that drawing is the foundation of all art practice. In her classes she aims to create a relaxed atmosphere whilst helping students to develop their skills and individual expression. Support material such as class handouts and visual resources complement the practical work. Her passion is colour and using this to enhance art.

Something Unique

Lisa comes from a family full of artists, potters and musicians. She is also a yoga teacher.
