I have had lots of teaching experience over several decades with many different groups, ranging from young children to elderly people, the very fit to the very ill. I love teaching water-colour painting, and run a number of workshops each year, both for beginners and for more advanced painters.

These include:

Residential weekends and non - residential days at Burnlaw, our retreat centre in Northumberland. (See www.burnlaw.org.uk to get an idea of the venue)

Painting holidays for small groups at my lovely house on the West coast of Mull. (See www.luardcottage.co.uk to find out more about the house and the island)

I also much enjoy working with groups of children and teenagers, often working outside on environmental art projects.

I'm also visiting teacher for many local art groups, and regularly teach at The Garden Station .

Please contact me for a current programme of workshops and courses.
