Summary
I have worked in several art environments with children of varying ages both in school and in external classes, and am looking to further my experience in the art world by working in a studio where I can help others and work as part of a team. I have been a customer of Art4Fun for the past 13 or so years, and am familiar with how the studio runs and would like to give others the same experience which I have grown to love.
