Aldeburgh Art Tutors

Her sculptures, cast in bronze and iron, are commissioned and exhibited in permanent settings worldwide. Complementing her studio practice, Caro has led specialist creative workshops for over 25 years and worked as a guest lecturer at De Montfort University in Leicester.

Karenza Jackson
KARENZA JACKSON has been working creatively for most of her life. Growing up in the countryside, her work tends to reflect her love of the great outdoors environment and the flora and fauna within it. Sketching outside is an important part of her working practice, gathering information to take back to the studio in her garden. When she is unable to spend time out in the landscape, there are other favourite subjects of the everyday, still lifes, garden landscapes and flowers. Much of her work consists of monotypes which are one off prints with just an edition of one. In essence they are paintings made with a comprehensive armoury of printmaking techniques. It is a very flexible medium and as Karenza enjoys working in other mediums such as painting, she is able to incorporate these in her print making. Being of a contemporary and representational nature, much of her work takes her on an experimental journey, moving her work forward and keep it fresh. Karenza has a BA Hons Fine Art degree and regularly exhibits her work in and around East Anglia. Complementing her studio practice, Karenza has also run a comprehensive programme of creative workshops for many years, teaching adults, children and groups with special needs in venues in Suffolk and Essex.
Carole Massey
CAROLE MASSEY has been a professional artist for many years and is a very supportive and popular tutor. Accomplished in painting both landscapes and portraits in watercolours, pastels and acrylics, she has tutored courses and painting holidays in East Anglia and in Europe. She has published seven books and has made a number of appearances on national TV, and is a contributor to arts magazines as well as online painting websites. She has exhibited and demonstrated at the Mall Galleries London, in East Anglia and in France. She was honoured with a portrait commission for the retiring deputy governor of the Bank of England, where the painting now hangs. Carole now lives in Suffolk with her husband, Eric.
Theresa Pateman
Theresa Pateman studied art at Thurrock College and Coventry School of Art & Design, specialising in linocut and monoprint, and developing her knowledge of etching techniques. With fellow graduates, she was awarded a Prince’s Trust Grant to establish a screen-printing workshop.
She later founded her own etching studio at Kingsgate Workshops, Kilburn, London, where she runs small printmaking classes, and also teaches printmaking at Hampstead School of Art. Her work has been exhibited widely in the UK and is held in collections including the Victoria and Albert Museum, London Metropolitan University, and private collections worldwide. Theresa is a member of the Southbank Printmakers and Printmakers Council.
Andrew Pitt
ANDREW PITT has been painting since he was eleven, inspired by watching visiting artists painting the Thames sailing barges in his home town of Maldon. He is committed to painting “in the field” all year round and has had over 20 one-man exhibitions. He now exhibits almost exclusively with The Serena Hall Gallery in Southwold. He has 40 years of experience teaching watercolour and oil painting and has contributed many articles to The Leisure Painter magazine. His first book, “Seasons and Reflections: Notes on Painting in Watercolour” was published in 2019. In 2008 Town House Films produced an instructional DVD, “Watercolour: Pure and Simple with Andrew Pitt” and more recently a Vimeo download film on “Mixing Greens in Watercolour”. There are several full length video demonstrations on his website. Andrew lives in Reydon, Southwold with his wife, Rachel and her flock of chickens.
