"I had a truly wonderful art teacher as a child and she sparked my love of art and design that shaped my career. I love passing on what I have learned throughout my artistic journey and sharing a passion for art with the children. I am really passionate about artCEE and all that it stands for as a grass roots artistic community organisation.

My name is Roz and I am an experienced artist with a Bachelor of Arts (Visual Arts).  I have experience as an assistant in the art department of a private school as well as taking my own afterschool art workshops for kids. I also teach art privately and have my own art practice in which I focus on acrylic painting and drawing. I am looking forward to working with the students.

Hi, my name is Terri. I am a mother of 3 grown children and we live in the beautiful rainforest of Mr. Glorious. I love all things Arty, especially illustration and design, having studied Fine Art. I later studied Horticulture/ Landscape design.

I’m  an avid gardener,  nature lover and photographer.

My name is Anika Watson (but everyone calls me Nikki). I am thrilled to be working with your child this term and getting creative together! 

I have been a teacher for over 20 years and lucky enough to work in 3 different countries. Along the way I have learned that art is a fabulous outlet for individual expression and a wonderful way to connect a person to the fun and freedom within themselves. There is nothing better than watching a creation unfold from a blank sheet of paper or lump of clay to something unique and beautiful. 

I look forward to supporting your child this term and hope you are as excited to see the end results as I am!
