Welcome
Hi, I’m Gary and my joy is to inspire, teach and make you smile.
Welcome to my creative practice… in all its many forms and outcomes.
My career has taken me on a fantastic journey as a freelance fashion designer, then to the world of academia and teaching.
I now continue the journey, breaking out into the public domain with my art works, along with my infectious enthusiasm for delivering teaching, through my master class workshops. These are held at my private studio based in Somerset UK, online and residentials.
Courses
There is always a warm welcome at the Exmoor Inspired Studio, my private master class teaching space for many of my creative workshops.

The Exmoor Inspired Studio
Each workshop is limited numbers of between 3-5 people depending on the activity.
There are also opportunities to book out the studio for a small private group for stitch, natter, and lunch (group minimum 4).
“At Gary’s Master Class Workshops you are in for a treat, not only do you get brilliant tuition in a relaxed atmosphere, but Gary also serves up a delicious lunch. Working with a small group of friends, we learnt new skills, and all took home a finished article.”
