Becci Upton

Associate Member; Textiles Teacher

Artist and Educator with over 20 years experience teaching Art and Design up to A- level in secondary school settings. I am always keen to try out new approaches and techniques and most recently textiles has been an area I have been keen to develop in. I started teaching A-Level Textiles  4 years ago and have attended a number Textiles Skill Centre face to face courses and found the content and delivery were simply the best practical CPD I had experienced.

I also create my own artwork and have an unhealthy obsession with maps. I am hoping to combine my current practice using metal and copper with textiles techniques and I am exploring ideas with this at the moment.

Dawn and Nicky welcomed me as an Associate to help support members in the Tea N Chat A-Level exam paper discussions and adding content to some of TSC Social pages. I am loving the journey so far and excited to see what we can offer and I can learn next.
