Mindfulness Art
Discover the benefits to your soul in these workshops, using art techniques to develop a mindful approach. Feel calm, relaxed and centred, and develop confidence and creativity. No art experience necessary, just bring an open mind.
​
Activities available are an introductory workshop with mindful breathing and automatic drawing; Chinese brush painting; Ink Mandalas; Rock Mandalas.
Expressive Watercolours
These are very relaxed workshops, using watercolours in an abstract way to create backgrounds for ink design, or layering translucent colours to build up a beautiful floral image.
Art Journalling
Learn how to keep a creative diary of your thoughts and feelings using a range of techniques and mixed media processes, including texture, collage, watercolours, distress inks, stencils and stamps.
Mixed Media
These workshops explore a variety of mixed-media approaches to create a textured board or canvas. We use layered textures, torn paper, gesso, found objects, ink sprays, gel pastes, stencils, stamps...an endless list!
