I have found over the years art making does not just fit into the old traditional old concepts of creating art . Art is about ideas and beauty that just aren’t pretty pictures on a wall but interactive, thought provoking and quite unique. Having an interest in creating art is about learning and incorporating the cross-over of many different mediums; charcoal, ink, gouache water colour, pen or sculpture…..you name it lets explore it!
