Celia Pickering
Art with Little Pics (Ages 6+)
Hello! I'm Celia Pickering, an artist from Birmingham, now living in Chiswick, West London.
I create and sell my own art, @celiamartinepickering, and have been a part of the Battersea Affordable Arts Fair raising money for Arts for Dementia.
With two kids - twins - of my own, I always incorporated art into daily life knowing how much it benefits children in their development from a young age.
I founded Art With Little Pics in 2009 when I started running art classes in Chiswick alongside my childminding work. What started as weekly drop-in session grew quickly to after school clubs and preschool classes. Now Art With Little Pics also includes adults, because art is important at any age!
I am an Ofstead qualified childminder, qualified TA and Art Teacher and have trained in Art Therapy. I have worked in schools in West London, developing art projects and programmes alongside curriculum themes.
