Amy Vallance Vallance

Currently studying my masters in fine art at derby university after graduating in my BA last year

I currently teach ages from 5-16 at youth clubs within Ripley and within my role as creative wellbeing producer at Derby Quad and free lance teaching at Art core

I am also a mentor for derby museum for the STEAM subject challenge (Midlands makers challenge)

I facilitate classes in fine art techniques and creative expression all over derby and Ripley

I have experience in SEND learners and I am also one myself so I can approach this in a relatable way

My own practice is based around mental health and my experiences, using my work to generate awareness

I have been previously commissioned by the city council to create a canopy of colour to make emphasis on the joy and pride I feel from being born and raised in derby

I have a great network of supporting artists and fellow creatives for help in all of the creative genres
