Next Course TBC (please email me if you are interested in this course)
(4 consecutive weeks)
This popular course is beginner friendly & suitable for all levels, especially those seeking permission to loosen up their style and 'play'
Art is a wonderful way to calm the mind and ground us. The colours,
textures, materials and methods draw us to our senses and help us immerse in the present moment
Each week Sarah begins by guiding the group in a short calming meditation & mindful drawing exercises to quiet the 'busy' mind before supporting you to explore colour, texture and pattern through a range of mixed media painting materials and techniques. Mindfulness Based Concepts are woven throughout the course and each week follows a theme to help you explore these concepts:
C.onnect
A.llow
L.et Go
M.ove Forward!
This is a relaxed and non-judgemental session offering you the freedom for creative-self care and spontaneous self expression. No previous art experience is necessary, just a willingness to be curious and experimental!

" I am so pleased I booked on the Mixed Media Mindfulness Course. Sarah is a knowledgeable teacher both in mindfulness practices and with all things creative. Her honesty and clear love of learning is very infectious and she creates such a safe space for self-expression, peace and well-being. This is not just an art course, it is for anyone who is looking to reclaim a sense of calm and playfulness in life - no previous skills or experience necessary whatsoever

" I would like to say that I loved the Mixed Media Mindfulness course. The meditation and mindfulness drawing set a relaxing atmosphere from the start and I have enjoyed exploring different media...I'm loving exploring at home and it has reawakened my love of art. Thank you for a fabulous course and for helping me understand that art is about enjoyment, fun and finding mindful moments and not the need to compare or strive for perfection! "
