Abstracted Landscapes

YouTube Theme for Autumn 2024

  • Join me this Autumn to explore a sense of place in art. I’ll be using a series of cues to create works of art on paper loosely inspired by real and imagined landscapes.
  • I’ve been inspired by reading on slow travelling and human engagement with the natural world, and on visiting coastal paths along the Forth and the North Sea.
  • I’ll be sharing my regular watercolour tips and projects for beginners alongside the process of making larger works and some forays into mixed media, printmaking and acrylics.
  • Only on YouTube!

Pattern-of-the-month

Join my Pattern Drawing Community on Ko-fi!

Each month on Ko-fi, I share an exclusive video for donating supporters sharing how to construct and paint different patterns. I’m covering Celtic knots, tiling patterns, geometric patterns and historic patterns.

If you love the free videos I make for YouTube and want to develop your skills with compass and ruler construction, come and join our very friendly community!

Workshops

In person workshops with the Arienas Collective

Learn to print or paint with me in a small home setting, in Edinburgh’s beautiful New Town.

I’ve got a number of options for learning to screen print, with a focus on you being able to take what you’ve learnt and use it in your own home or studio. 

I also have a beautiful vintage tabletop letterpress, and have some really fun options for exploring making your own cards and stationery using metal type.

Make your booking through the Arienas Collective, and check their website for upcoming dates.
