‘EXPLORING CREATIVITY’ WORKSHOP SERIES
April 16th, 24th and 30th
Three 2.5hr sessions, over three weeks, on Thursdays
at 11am.
I am pleased to announce that I will be leading an upcoming workshop series called ‘Exploring Creativity’, in London, with fellow artist @iamjonrees
There will be exercises and conversation designed to help you explore your own creative process, within a relaxed and supportive environment.
We will experiment with a range of materials and approaches, including paint, drawing, spray paint and photography, using simple prompts to spark ideas and encourage exploration. The sessions will take place across the indoor and outdoor garden spaces at Kindred Studios in Shepherds Bush.
Jon is someone I am very inspired by, and so I’m delighted to be working with him on this.
If you feel stuck in your creative process or dream of being more creative, this workshop series will provide a space for you to explore your own unique creativity. The sessions will be inspiring, thought-provoking, and fun.
Open to people of every experience level, from absolute beginners, and all are welcome!

21 DAYS OF CREATING
Starting 21st March
A couple of years ago I ran something called 21 Days of Creating and about 60 people joined. Every day for 21 days we did something creative, big or small.
Some people painted, some wrote poems, some started projects they had been putting off for years. It was really cool!
The idea is that progress is made by taking small imperfect actions every day.
So I’m running it again, starting 21st March. It’ll be done via a WhatsApp group, where each morning I’ll post a short creative thought or reflection for the day. You can share what you create, or not.
So far we have 52 people who have joined, of all ages and from all over the world. Everyone is welcome.
If you’d like to join, please send me a message.
For the last few weeks I have been exploring the wilds of Scotland.
In early November, I hopped in my car from London and drove up to Edinburgh, where I met my friend Flora. Together we drove North to the Cairngorms and then on to Findhorn. Flora is Scottish and has a depth of knowledge and a love for Scotland that is truly inspiring, so there’s no better person I could have had as my guide. We hiked together up wind-swept hills, passed the most beautiful lochs, walked through pine forests and stopped at the odd bothy. It was spectacular.
I then continued on to the Isle of Skye where I am now, soaking up the landscape, the elements and the breathtaking beauty.
My heart and my adventurous spirit are full.
I was just scrolling back through my photos to find inspiration for the ‘21 Days of Creating’ and I came across this picture of these two pieces that I did back in 2019. They are the only paintings that I have ever kept, as they feel particularly close to my heart. One day I may let them go, but for now I’m pleased that I decided not to sell them.

#21daysofcreating #londonart
Hello from Mexico City!
.
What a wild and wonderful journey the last four months has been! Gathering so much creative inspiration on my travels through Colombia and Mexico and more recently, really feeling the energy building, to create again.
.
Tomorrow I’m off to buy some watercolour pencils and from Thursday, I plan to embark on ‘21 Days of Creating’ where I will endeavour to draw or paint something every day. I’d love to extend the invitation to anyone else who feels like joining me, to draw, paint, write or make, and there is no time limit per day, it could just be a quick 10 minute thing. I’ll be posting about my daily creating process on my stories and am interested to see what unfolds.
A few people have messaged to ask if ending this run of limited edition prints means that I’m retiring as an artist. Oh no, absolutely not!! Quite the opposite. I’ve just had lots of orders for the prints lately and I don’t want too many of any particular piece out there, so I feel it’s the right time to stop these particular pieces.
.
I’m currently gathering lots of creative inspiration on my travels, to feed into new work when I’m back! I will also be running more of my creativity and intuition workshops, one of the things I’m most passionate about.
I’m posting this from the sunny shores of Mexico, which from what I gather is little warmer than it is in London right now!
.
I wanted to let you know that my Limited Edition prints will no longer be available after 31st December. I’ve been getting a lot of enquiries recently, so this is just to ensure that any final orders are received before this date. You can either dm me or use the link in the bio. Wishing you all a happy festive season!
