After an initial demonstration and explanation, we will dive in and work on developing artwork in a specific technique through adopting a follow-along style for the first half of the day. As we progress, we can move on to use the technique on varying subjects during the day, suitable for different levels of experience. At the end of each day I will review your work and give you feedback.
All materials will be provided and the courses are run within a fun, yet professional, environment. The studio has ample parking and is conveniently located on the edge of Wexford town.

Single Evening Courses
These single evening courses are each stand alone events where students can develop a specific technique, or try a new technique across the course of an evening.
Suitable for both novices and the more experienced, you may simply want to dip your toe in the water and try something you've never done before or, for the more experienced, be looking to add another string to your bow with a new technique.
After demonstrating the elements of a technique we will move quickly to put it into practice with some brief exercises. In the second half of the session, time permitting, you should be able to create a small piece for yourself using your preferred technique from the first half of the session

Mosaic Workshops
It's relaxing, it's addictive and you will learn all you need to know to create your own mosaic masterpiece in a weekend. Having worked in mosaic on a wide range of international projects over many years I can advise you on what's achievable and guide you along the steps to achieve it.
Wanting to try something new? Or perhaps you have an idea for a mosaic you would like to create? Over the course of one weekend I will guide you through all of the steps required to create a mosaic artwork you can be proud of displaying in your home or garden. You don't need any previous experience and I will provide all of the materials required for you to produce a small mosaic panel by the end of the weekend. Just bring your imagination! (There are also one day courses available on various dates.)
Please check out the testimonials on this site and if you have any questions please do contact me. (These workshops are my most popular and places are limited to twelve students per weekend. It is therefore essential that you book a place in advance by contacting me and paying a small deposit to secure a place.)
