Using the knowledge of my 30 plus years as a designer, I combine commercial techniques and fine art practices in my artwork. This workshop will give you a starting point, and open your imagination to the possibilities that today’s technology combined with traditional methods, allows.
The workshop will be held in my Tighes Hill Studio, to allow the use of my computer and high end fine art printer. Secure your place now, as I will only work with a maximum of 6 people at a time.
