Sophie is a very talented artist and a great teacher. I gave her class as a gift to my boyfriend and it was a really fun day out for both of us- the studios are in a great spot with a climbing wall next door and the cable car to take you across the river. Sophie's class was relaxed and we had a laugh and also created some amazing art work that we will treasure forever thank you Sophie !! This was such a good surprise gift I would recommend to anyone

Your Teacher

Sophie is an artist, primarily a painter she also works with ceramics, drawing, printmaking and digital media. She is a colourist with a keen interest in expressing herself and her experiences through bold colour and striking mark making. All of which can be seen in her abstract and figurative pieces, which often contain a deep emotional and imaginative content.

Sophie enjoys exploring daring contrasts in her work both aesthetically and psychologically. Sophie has always done people’s portraits and takes commissions and is happy working both from life and photography.
