By creating art, no matter the skill level, we engage our mind, body, and spirit in a way that is restorative and comes with a host of benefits. Practicing art helps to reduce stress and anxiety, while also increasing self-esteem.

Equipped with the right materials, and in surroundings conducive to enjoy and discover art; in a tranquil atmosphere the aim is to cultivate artistic discovery and enjoyment! Having witnessed so many students flourish under this approach - is incredibly rewarding, especially for them. Their work often exceeds expectations, reflecting a newfound confidence and a deep love for the art they are able to create - a new found passion - which can easily be continued in their time and space.

Sometimes, if you have a talent for art, just being given the time and space to ‘create’ is enough. A number of my clients only need a hint of direction - and produce pieces of art way beyond expectations.

"the aim is to cultivate artistic discovery and enjoyment!"

I remember on 22nd February 2023, former Prime Minister, Tony Blair, announcing on the BBC Radio 4, Today’s programme "that the world is now gripped in a Technology Revolution; we are going through the equivalent of the 19th Century Industrial Revolution, and are moving into an age where AI is going to change, and already has changed, everything".

AI has so many benefits but also with it has come a host of mental health issues especially since the pandemic; teenagers and children have become more reliant on social media and ultimately screen usage. Away from any social media influence, traditional fine art techniques engage both the brain and hands - and are one of the best ‘soothing’ techniques now being used to help children, teenagers and adults overcome mental health issues.
