FACILITATED ART SESSIONS
This is a specialist arts practise to facilitate an encounter with the intelligence of plants.
It is therapeutic, relaxing, moving, joyful, hugely insightful and an opportunity to have a deep honest connection and conversation with nature.
The artistic process helps you build an alliance with a particular plant. As we know, plants heal our bodies - and they can also help us emotionally.
Individual art sessions provide a confidential space for your own creative investigation. As you build a relationship with a plant and uncover its properties through its form, and gesture you will be gently directed using different mediums and observation techniques to further your connection with the plant or plants you are experiencing.
This art process brings together real life nature observation, felt-experience, and imagination. Working in this way establishes a strong anchor to natural form and pattern, and brings balance. The incredible information available through the plants or the environment is always an awe inspiring moment.
The benefit of a creative or therapeutic journey facilitated, witnessed and gently guided brings further potency, and is proven to be more effective for neuroplastic change.

I trained with Tobias School of Art & Therapy as well as in-depth with several animist healing traditions. I abide by a strict code of ethics which includes taking supervision. All work is confidential with a focus on establishing a safe space for freedom, integrity and non-judgmental expression.
“Thank you, as always, for this work that you do with flowers. It has changed me.”
Join this monthly drawing class to meditate on plants. We will use different art techniques playing with form and colour, observation and imagination. The class varies from being gently led, building one’s instinctive response, or coming together to reflect. We will also occasionally look at the work of other artists. The overall aim is to use art to come into connection with the essence of the plant.

If you sign-up once you will be emailed the details each month (and are free to leave the list anytime)
(the class will be held on zoom, bring a sketch-pad or good quality watercolour paper, drawing pencils, charcoal and watercolours - any specific materials and plant instructions will be emailed before the class)
The classes are not recorded - I prefer to teach in the moment, this is so we are free as a group, and if any deep responses people have are liberated from anyone else to see or hear in the future. We also then keep the moment with each plant in our hearts, and learn through the experience.
