Mentoring
In addition to teaching adults and school students over the last two decades, frequently I find myself asked to provide support and advise to artists and tertiary arts students on a individual basis. Occasionally interstate or overseas undergraduate and postgraduate students request and attend a combination of my studio classes and studio based workshops here in Perth, Western Australia. I also provide formal and ongoing individual mentoring through external organisations such as the Alumni organisations at Edith Cowan University, Curtin University and UWA. This provides an important supportive and monitoring framework for both of us. My experience doing this annually since 2015 is that these programs attract the more motivated and organised students, and further accelerating their progress. Ask your Lecturers or Alumni about how to apply. For those wishing to learn about my own start in the arts, I suggest you read the earlier articles at my earlier writing on this website, an example is here. |
