Seán Myers

I am an artist and educator with specialist teaching experience in printmaking and mixed media art & design, educating young people and adults from diverse backgrounds in schools, colleges, and universities.

I aim to communicate concepts and processes in my subject(s) in an active, practical, and intuitive way, to make sure students not only understand a subject itself but also the potential to cross over into other subjects as well.

I like to embed technical knowledge of how and why successful projects work in students, as this is very important to me in how I teach and my own fine art practice.

I have:

Expertise in intaglio, relief and colour surface printmaking: screen-printing, etching, dry-point, photopolymer, monotypes, vinyl & linocut, collagraph, cyanotype, photo-transfer, textural printing, offset plate lithography, collage and Chine-colle.

Extensive technical experience of all screen-printing processes in fine art, design and textiles contexts.

Highly adaptable creative approaches to research and concept development.

Innovative drawing, painting, photography, collage and mixed media methods.

Cross-disciplinary approaches to analogue and digital techniques and processes.

Passionate motivator, focused on getting the best from students of all abilities.

Empathy and building a positive rapport with students.
