Introduction to my 'Flick n Click' website
Flick represents the flick of my paint brush used to create canal art decoration and Click represents the shutter button on my camera. That's me in the picture, Tim Whitelock. Both canal art and photography are hobbies I like to share with others through teaching canal art, selling items at craft shows and giving talks.
I originally trained as a Furniture Designer/Cabinet Marker at the London College of Furniture in the 1970s. When I completed four years at the LCF the country was in one of its many recession so after working as a Technician in the Building Department of Hackney College for a few years, I went back to college and trained as a Design & Technology teacher. My first teaching position was at East Bergholt, close to Flatford Mill in Suffolk. I then moved to a school at Brentwood in Essex where I spent almost thirty years. I taught Design & Technology which included Woodwork, Metalwork, Plastics and Graphics to GCSE and A Level. During that time I also taught the history of canal's, canal art and woodwork as an evening class.
