My Assistant
Adrian is my special helper with my art for he has skills (and time for these
skills) that I do not have.
If you need help or advice on particular topics that I cannot help you with,
then he may assist, offer information on, or even run a special workshop or
demonstration for you or your group. Here are some of the topics he
specialises in:
Frame making
Mount cutting
Putting art into mounts and frames with all the special tapes and fixings
Shabby Chic frame colouring and distressing creating age and patina
Frame guilding effect (cheaper than using gold leaf)
Photographing artworks particularly lighting, colour balance and
perspective
Editing photos on computers using Lightroom (Buy) or various free
editors that come with Windows.
Desktop publishing such as label printing and card making using
CorelDraw, Microsoft Word or similar
Art web site page design using Xara Web Designer
In addition to art based topics, Adrian can tutor in:
Digital photography, shutter speed, aperture and ISO usage to really
advanced
Specialist drawing skills such as Orthographic, Isometric, Exploded
Perspective
Model making, kit assembly and bashing through to scratch building
Plus:-
Adrian can also offer classes in cabinet-making, woodturning, wood
machining, metalwork and engineering, but these would have to be with your
kit, at your own premises, as we do not have such items at our small
establishment.
A quick piece of advice or demo from Adrian is free, but for more advanced
help why not spend extra time with Adrian on a topic of your choice from the
above lists. His direct contact details are in my contacts web page.
