Renee Sanileva

Renee has autism and has been coming to art for several years. Being creative is an important and grounding part of her week. Participating in something creative has allowed her to grow social skills and feel a real sense of achievement in a familiar and inclusive environment. She is looked after by her friends and tutors in the studio and likes to be connected. Her favourite thing to paint is cats. She is able to focus well while she is doing what she enjoys with paint. Renee has recently returned from a trip visiting relations in Samoa.
