Views: 238 | Enquiries: 3Paul grew up in a home where arts and craft working was strongly encouraged - many birthday gifts were paper and paint! School life was always centred around the Art lessons rather than the sports field , and was very lucky to find supportive Art teachers who were only too happy to pass on their experience in many different areas of Art and Design. I have very lucky to have worked in many art and craft disciplines and I also work as a demonstrator and trainer at Weald and Downland Museum and also as a visiting teacher at primary Schools. I have been speaking to public groups for over 10 years on a range of subjects, my talks always have lots of examples and samples of the subject and I encourage the audience to examine these and ask questions throughout the talk as well as over coffee at breaktime. Each talk is conversational in approach and can be customised to the group to make it more relevant if required.
