“My work, for many years, was in theatre lighting. I wanted to explore new avenues and see where I could take my creative skills.

The OCA provided the flexibility to study illustration at degree level whilst maintaining an income.

The staff and tutor network give all students the opportunity to showcase their work, something that I wouldn’t have had access to before.

The support and critique from my tutors has been invaluable, they continue to challenge me to develop my practice and take it to new heights.”
