UK Workshops

West Dean College

West Dean College in West Sussex is internationally recognised for conservation and creative art and is definitely one of my very favourite locations for teaching. Set in rolling countryside and surrounded by stunning gardens it provides a wonderful timeless, relaxed environment with excellent food and always good company.

Due to Covid-19 the class sizes are smaller and my demonstrations can be viewed in close-up on large TV screens around the room. Equipment lists will be provided.

The West Dean shop is open during the mornings and if you need any of the equipment that I supply if you email me in advance and I can bring this along on the day. I hope you can join me there!

27 – 30 March 2026

• I will demonstrate my techniques for creating realistic textures for bloom, velvety petals, strong highlights and several other surface patterns.
