I am a watercolour artist, inspired by the natural world. I adore wildflowers, they represent the yin and yang of being wild and free, strong yet delicate. In 2023 I had the incredible experience of an Artist residency at Plantlife International, an Environmental Conservation Organisation.
This workshop shares my travels across the UK visiting some of Plantlife’s nature reserves and partner sites, immersing myself in my art in the flora in these beautiful locations.
In this workshop we will explore:
A variety of wildflowers
Watercolours and alternative art tools
Breathing meditations to connect you to your creativity and quieten your 'inner critic'
Trusting your artists intuition
This workshop is for you if you:
Would like to develop how to use watercolours
Want to create time to nourish your wellbeing
Would like to let go of thoughts of self judgement
