About Andrew Thomas SWAc
I am a qualified Further Education tutor with 31 years of experience, teaching both in schools and privately from my studio in Church Knowle, Dorset. Combined with my own sculptural practice, I have developed a deep understanding of form, style, and the technical and creative skills required to produce both realistic and artistic works.
Over the years, I have designed a structured, effective, and highly successful method of tuition for anyone wishing to explore this challenging and complex art form.
