Rhian

23 Year old girl Illustration graduate offering sessions of Art and Crafts for younger students aswell as technical teaching for older students. I have a range of experience within the creative industry working as a freelance illustrator/ animator. I can offer guidance and support to older students who are doing their Art School Applications as well as supply fun and interactive Arts and crafts lessons for younger children.
For younger children: (7- 13yrs)
Sessions can be bought to you or held in my fun and cosy garden shed studio in Hove. Sessions are normally 2 hours and start at £30 plus a small deposit is required for materials. Fun and interactive sessions focusing on handy crafts such as jewellery making, model making, painting and drawing and stitch/ sewing. Can pick up/ drop off with car. This will improve your child’s creative thinking and practical skills that will help them keep themselves amused and inspired during mundane times.
For older students: Having gone through all levels of art training and applications up to BA I can help support students with their Art school applications and help them improve their technical skills including drawing and portfolio building. Fully experienced with using the Adobe Creative suite espeically After effects, Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign and I will be able to help with these softwares if your child is interested in graphic design, illustration or animation.
