Creative Consultant: @FromNow.studio

Founder and Creative Consultant at FromNow studio, I am passionate about creative thinking and building confidence in emerging artsits, entrepreneurs and communities, working closely with organisations and local authorities to develop programmes centred around creative practice development and hybrid programme delivery across creative industries, public sector, freelancer and artist-focussed ecosystems

As a visual Artist, I listen to and advocate for artists and freelance creative practitioners as a Trustee of Visual Arts Scotland Council alongside my consultancy work.

I make things, my art practice is drawing and paper based, I take photos too

My practice is ongoing, riding out the same challenges affecting working creatives in the here and now

I’m working towards sharing more on my personal experiences through my work at FromNow.studio
