Jennifer Littlejohn is an East Lothian-based artist and educator whose own practice is rooted in curiosity, close observation and an interest in our relationships with the living world. She has taught in a wide range of settings and with different ages and levels of experience over the past 18 years.

Jennifer has a broad knowledge of contemporary art and art history and enjoys helping students develop their own ideas, confidence and visual language. Her teaching is supportive and exploratory, creating an environment where students feel safe to experiment, take risks and try different approaches. At the same time, she encourages students to look critically at their visual choices and consider their impact, using the visual elements of art – including colour, line, shape, tone and composition – to help them understand and develop their work.

She works closely with individual students, listening to what they are trying to achieve and offering questions, suggestions and practical guidance. Her aim is not to impose a particular style, but to help each student develop confidence and their own way of seeing and making.
