Information

Maureen Carter.

For as long as I can remember I have wanted to be an artist, but the opportunity to study only came when my own children were in their late 'teens. Then I studied as a mature student for A levels in Art History and Art practical. Following that I went through a Foundation Course and on to study Illustration in Cambridge.

Since then I have illustrated various books, mainly children's stories or educational books for publishers such as MacMillan's, Lyon, Hodder and Stoughton, Chadwell, and Reader's Digest New York.

I also take commissions for portraits of pets, people, houses, landscapes, flowers, in fact I will endeavour to tackle whatever subject that is proposed to me. The illustration course was very good at making us put drawing as a high priority, and watercolour became my favourite medium.

Tackling subjects that have a meaning for me, a special interest, is entirely absorbing and I am grateful for the chance to earn from the great love I have for drawing, painting, and 'making pictures'.

I also teach, and have my own workshops locally, going sometimes to other art groups as a visiting tutor. Some people have come to me for private one-to-one tuition, and it is a great joy to me to pass on what I have learned to others.

Private one-to-one tuition is also available or a couple together sharing the cost.

There is also a Course Book I have compiled from my experience working for the Adult Education Service, information about this on the above website.
