This week, meet Mary Watson, one of the first undergraduate artists taking part in our volunteering programme. Mary is a great addition to our Thursday Aspire workshops!
“I will be graduating from Duncan of Jordanstone in 2015. Over the past four years my artistic practice has developed hugely, I now work primarily within sculpture, with my main focus currently being ceramics.
For me volunteering with the Thursday Aspire workshops has been hugely rewarding, I have never worked within such a positive, spontaneous and creative environment before. Aspire has allowed me to see the endless different ways that people react to and use materials. I love then being able to use these different techniques within my own practice and being able to pass on my own expertise to others. I find the enthusiasm and joy that both the participant and tutors approach their work with inspiring.”
Thanks Mary!
