As an advisory teacher for art, she worked with both adults and children. Viv enjoys watching students’ confidence and creativity grow under her guidance. She is excited about joining the Distant Stitch team of tutors, stimulated by this new way of learning and looks forward to seeing work from students online. She gains inspiration for her own textile work from the varied landscape and wildlife around her home. Viv exhibits with groups and through Somerset Arts Week and teaches workshops in partnership with her daughter Lizzy who is also a textile artist. About Lizzy Lewis
