I'm an visual artist based in England. I love ceramics, painting and drawing, as well as sharing my creative skills with others!
I enjoy travelling, meeting new people, and gaining new skills, which is why I've signed up for workaway.

Que habilidades tienes?

As an artist, I work mainly in illustration and textile print design. I am also a freelance workshop facilitator at various organisations and museums, where I teach children (and sometimes adults) different artistic techniques. In this line of work I have become passionate about sharing my knowledge with others, enjoying connecting with the community through creativity.

I have also had many jobs in Retail & Hospitality, working as a sales assistant for many years. I also was a waitress in a busy cafe, where I attended to customers, baked cakes, and served food. Furthermore, I volunteer as a cook for a charity in Bristol, UK, which supplies food for the homeless. I enjoy working with others and taking part in projects that give back to the community.

I volunteered for 3 months in Hatay, Türkiye, an area effected by an earthquake in 2023. Many homes were destroyed, and I went to support local children, many of whom were living in tents and refugee camps with their families. I taught them art, English, and played sports. We also organised big cleanups of the village and forest areas, which were full of plastic, and educated children on the importance of keeping the environment clean.

I recently spent 5 months in Colombia, where I worked on agricultural and reforestation projects, which included planting trees in the Colombian jungle! I also volunteered at an eco-village, where I helped construct cob houses. I would like to develop my construction skills, especially natural building.
