Tuition

To give adult learners and 'returnees' a start with knowledge of materials and techniques which may have been forgotten since schooldays. My groups all proceed, experiment and improve at an amazing speed and we all enjoy the time. Many members are now very proficient and we learn from each other.

 

Biography

I was born and schooled near Abergavenny and then travelled to India with my parents. I returned to travel and live with my husband and family in Scotland, Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire,Pakistan and finally back to Wales some 25 years ago. Now retired, I spend a deal of my time involved in art with others of like mind. Various societies and galleries in West Wales have shown my work and I enjoy passing my knowledge on to others just starting.

 

Exhibitions

I am a member of the Cardigan Open Studios (www.cardiganopenstudios.co.uk)and also exhibit with local societies and selected exhibitions and galleries from Newport, Cardigan Theatre Mwldan and Guildhall up to M.O.M.A. Machynlleth. There are many shows right through the spring and summer. My studio is open to any visitors - but better with a prior phone call to avoid a wasted journey. Check my details on www.sallypearce.co.uk where you can see exhibition and opening details.

 

Awards

Some awards at college and on courses but I don't enjoy being competetive and I also feel that it stifles an emotional and natural way of working.
