Courses 2026
Wake up your creativity. Make with freedom.
These courses are an invitation to explore your creativity in a gentle and open way.
Whether you are just beginning or have years or experience, you’ll be guided through process-led ways of working that will help you loosen perfectionism and feel more at ease with how you make.
With many years of teaching experience, I create calm, supportive spaces where you can slow down, notice and build confidence in your own creative practice while spending time with like minded people.
Most courses will run at Eliza House in Wellington. The first floor art studio in this beautiful period house has all the equipment and materials you will need for the course and is easily accessible with public parking next door.
I also run a monthly session Connect and Create. This is an opportunity for people to bring work, enjoy chatting, sharing and simply being creative together. More details and dates below.
