Small Abstract Canvas

This is an in-person art workshop in a professional art studio that is a welcoming and warm space to paint without plans and explore painting freely.  We will paint intuitively – instinctively to music, stepping into the flow and allowing the painting to evolve and uncover into an explosion of colour, pattern, marks, shapes and texture on the canvas. You won't leave with the same painting as the person next to you—you'll leave with something completely your own.

​

Our sessions are designed to help you: quiet the mind and allow your intuition to lead the way, express true emotions and play without judgement, discover your unique creative signature and let your inner voice speak, and embrace stillness and freedom away from a busy, hectic world.

 

This isn’t your typical Brighton and Hove art class. We aren't here to replicate a reference photo or stress over making things look "perfect." Instead, we provide a warm, open space where you can let the music guide your brush and simply explore where the canvas takes you.

​

Together we will:

Paint Expressive, Bold, and Free
We will dive into big, expressive brush movements using your own custom colour palette. Beyond standard brushes, you’ll unlock a wonderland of possibilities with playful tools like sponges, bubble wrap, rollers, scrapers, bottle tops, and even your own fingers!

Get Messy & Experiment
This is your invitation to get messy and play. You will experiment with a rich variety of mediums—including acrylics, pastels, charcoal, and oil pastels—to awaken your inner artist and uncover your unique creative signature.

Break Through Blocks
Together, we will gently dissolve limiting beliefs. This dynamic, free-flowing painting style moves us past creative blocks, old fears, and self-doubt, guiding us straight into the pure joy of a flow state.

Express Your True Self
By quietening the mind and listening to the heart, you will find a space to express your soul without boundary or judgment. As you experiment with paint, you’ll rebuild a relationship with who you are, reconnect with your inner child, and fully tap into the deep wisdom that lives inside you.

You will have time to develop your own intuitive painting on a small canvas, which you will take home with you at the at the end of the workshop.
