I volunteered my workshop skills to assist artists and scientists for the 'Pestival' festival -an exploration and celebration of all things insect and arty. As you can see I was a busy little worker bee! (That's me on the left!)

I illustrated six children's books, commissioned by an American educational publisher, the artwork consisted of foodchains in various American environments, of woodlands, deserts, oceans, mountains and towns.  

I hosted my own school workshops in the gallery education department, working alongside an exhibition by artist Ellen Gallagher, entitled 'An Experiment of Unusual Opportunity'.  I encouraged experimentation with layering and the use of various drawing materials, taking inspiration from Ellen's paintings. (Below are a few examples of the children's beautiful creations).

I ran my own workshop for the Barbican Arts Centre entitled 'Not Boring Drawing', I had great fun leading a whole weekend of wire drawing for a 'Do Something Different Festival'. Below is a section of the hanging wall of wire we created.

As part of my daily extra curricular school workshops, the children and I created cotton Japanese carp kites in celebration of National Children's Day.
