Learning what it is to teach in those times of Corona virus and adapting to the French education system. Fun times! Having some time to keep working on my Art is priceless.

Sep 2019 - Sep 2020
After five years of teaching Art and seeing the students enjoying themselves, I have decided to produce all the ideas I didn't have the time to create. I will shortly be setting up an exhibition with paintings, drawings, sculptures and more.
