Liddy is the creative force and main tutor with Something Less Boring. She is a qualified Illustrator and also a qualified teacher.
Liddy taught art for over 10 years at secondary school level before leaving to found Something Less Boring in 2017 with the aim of bringing art and sport to all ages regardless of ability in a fun, creative and inclusive way.
Since April 2020 we estimate that Liddy has taught close to 500 online art sessions!
Some of my fondest childhood memories are those spent with my siblings creating stories, drawing illustrations and making books.
I guess it was from here that a profound love for all things creative was born and nurtured."
