About Paula Harmer

I was a primary teacher and headteacher all my working life and have given many talks and presentations to adults, but now I can indulge my passions! When I retired I discovered that I am a pastelist (I’d never touched pastels before!) and I use that skill to raise money for an animal rescue centre in North Macedonia, run entirely by two dedicated young women. I have currently three art talks, all well illustrated with slides, both entertaining and enlightening.
