FiredForms | About Us

We are Paula Downing (Hosking) & Antony Hosking, and have worked together for more than 25 years instructing students of all ages in the Visual Arts.
I, Paula, specialize in Ceramics and Fine Art, while Antony focuses on 3D Studies and Photography (see www.photopractice.co.uk).

We have just moved to, Perranarworthal, between Truro and Falmouth in Cornwall, England.

We conduct holiday workshops on various visual arts. Our workshops are a journey of creative self discovery. You can try new ideas, find your individual strengths and interests, and develop them to achieve your ambitions. We complement each other's skills to offer expertise in a wide variety of media including linkage of ideas and investigative work through drawing, painting, 3D form/sculpture, and photography. This is especially helpful for GCSE, AS/A'Level and Portfolio work.

We are passionate about creating images and three-dimensional work and firmly believe in a 'hands-on' experimental approach, that will enthuse and inspire you. Some things in life you cannot learn from books!
