About Me

I am a dynamic art teacher, having specialised in SEN, primary, Forest School and Coastal education previously. I can teach a broad range of art and craft classes to suit a theme and fit into any subject within the National Curriculum. I am passionate about the environment and encourage use of found and upcycled objects in making art. I am always keen to put on a pair of wellies and either forest forage or beach comb and create from what I find. If I can collect waste plastics at the same time then this really adds purpose to time spent in nature. I am involved with a number of environmental organisations whose work supports nature conservation, especially that of our coasts and oceans. I am an ambassador for the Outer Hebrides for the charity Engage Arts and a member of Curator Space.

Dreaming of becoming a fashion designer or build a successful portfolio? It’s easier than you think!
My teaching philosophy centres around helping students discover their instinctive creative voices through experimental drawing techniques. I believe in the power of intuitive creation, where students are encouraged to move beyond traditional methods, tap into their creativity, and embrace innovative approaches to drawing. This process empowers them to build a strong personal style while gaining the technical skills necessary to express their ideas confidently. As a lecturer at Central Saint Martin's i use my years of teaching experience to help every student unlock their potential, guiding them in finding their unique artistic identity and confidently navigating their creative journeys. Whether you're looking to build a portfolio, develop new drawing skills, or simply explore new creative approaches, I offer a personalised, hands-on approach that meets each student where they are, helping them grow and evolve as an artist. Fashion design isn't just about learning techniques; it's about discovering and expressing your instinctive creative voice. In my lessons, we’ll focus on intuition-driven design—moving beyond traditional, formulaic methods and embracing a more personal, organic approach to creating fashion. Designing with intuition: You’ll learn how to trust your instincts in the design process, whether you’re sketching new ideas or creating full garments. Exploring fabric and silhouette: Through hands-on exercises, you’ll learn how to experiment with different materials, shapes, and textures to create unique and bold designs. Breaking traditional boundaries: My approach challenges you to explore unconventional forms, colours, and patterns, encouraging designs that reflect your own artistic vision.

Vicky
Group Creative Therapy: Story-making for Wellbeing
These online workshops offer opportunity for arrival, expansion and connection through a combination of meditation, movement and story-making exercises. Each workshop lasts 90 minutes and a typical session may include stretching and movement exercises, improvisation games, collaborative storytelling and guided meditation. Each session offers the opportunity for experiencing and practicing grounding (being connected to our present space and time) and offers us connection with our imagination, with our creativity and with the others in our group. Testimonials from past participants: “It feels like Vicky’s created a space that will mould itself to our shapes, rather than us having to find a way to fit in.” “I always leave feeling like it was worthwhile and like we creatively achieved something. Even if it's something small. Very gratifying stuff for quite a short length of time.” “It is really beneficial to have someone facilitating these thought processes in the way that Vicky does. It is evident that Vicky carefully curates these exercises to meet the mood of the 'room'.” “I often come out of the workshops feeling refreshed - a state that is quite hard to attain during this period of lockdown and mundanity.”
