Painting for me is a transparent mirror between layers of self.
I explore rhythms of natural forms where movement is a fluid joint of time and space.
My paintings are mostly abstract (figurative) in oils and acrylic on large canvasses.
I have studied extensively art both in Russia and the UK.

I did a design course at Harrow School of Art and then had my own Studio in Golders Green where I sold wool, taught and designed
I knit by hand and also by machine. I find knitting, creative, enjoyable …...and addictive!...and I love to teach others, from the first casting on until giving a professional finish to the project
I also make students do the measurements that mean the garment will fit (there no such thing as a standard child)
FROM THE BEGINNER TO THE ADDICT!
I am happy to help you with a project you have started or want to start or to help you learn new techniques and to design for yourself
Classes are small so there is lots of individual tuition and they are fun !
Come as often as you like, either to sort out problems, or to tackle a major knitting technique or design project.
Author of 'Cosy Gloves'
£15 per session. (First session £10 only)
Every Wednesday morning 10 - 12.30pm
