Portfolio Course 2009


I recently finished teaching two intensive two-week portfolio courses with second level art college hopefuls. It was a full on month but it was great to work with students who are enthusiastic and keen to exercise their creative minds. Lots more of the students work is up on flickr.

Nice find.


Hattie Newman makes sweet little paper sets, illustrations and animations that are worth a browse.

"My contention is that creativity now is as important in education as literacy and we should treat it with the same status."

Hello Switzerland!


Preparing for a big move to Switzerland this coming September. Very excited to live in a new culture and climate as well as get stuck into learning a new language. Four weeks left in Ireland. Altogether....auh!
