Tegan Crosbie is a local painter who is, by day, a secondary school art teacher and, by night, a sneaky artist! Nature's unique and quirky beauty has inspired Tegan's collection of botanical pieces along with her perpetual love of colour. Tegan paints because she enjoys it. She finds it therapeutic and restorative.
Tegan's dog Blazer also attends classes. Blazer is a certified Therapy Dog and Tegan is a therapy dog handler, which means that Blazer is assessed as suitable both from a health and wellness perspective for the animal and from a suitability and safety for human participants and a lovely and nurturing additional presence in Tegan's classes. Please feel free to contact us with any queries about this.
