How did you find this site? On details given with workshop leaflet.
Comments Recently I attended a Metallic Layers workshop you gave at Kentwood. I was really excited by it and at the end of the day my mind was whirling with ideas. You are an excellent tutor, encouraging and inspiring. I really like your work, and the new website is brilliant. What more can I say, then? I just wish I had more time to experiment and play with metals and metallic effects...and PLEASE write a book! It would be snapped up!

Best wishes - Judith
