"Creative Confidence"

With years of experience teaching traditional drawing methods and fostering creativity in students, my teaching philosophy revolves around providing a safe and supportive environment for students to experiment with materials and drawing techniques, regardless of their age or experience level. I believe that every student has the potential to excel, and my aim is to build a foundation of success from the start.
I am well-versed in art materials and not intimidated by the perception of "good art." I understand that every student has their own unique style and I aim to help them find their voice through the art of drawing.
In 2020, I produced a short video called "Creative Confidence," which explores how we progress in our ability to draw from infancy to adulthood. This video has been greatly appreciated by adult students and serves as a great starting point for the group.
While I have achieved success in teaching children's workshops, particularly during the Covid period, my true passion lies in facilitating adult teaching.   I firmly believe that teaching adults provides a unique opportunity to explore practical theory and case studies in greater depth, allowing for a more nuanced understanding of the creative process.   
For instance, it allows us to delve into formulating the gag when creating a cartoon strip or single-panel cartoon, rather than just focusing on drawing a given object or scene.
