Creative Expression Art Workshop

A 2-hour in-person creative expression group art workshop

A workshop with a difference

In our busy world, it’s easy to feel disconnected — from ourselves, from stillness, and from our imagination. This workshop offers a gentle space to slow down, reconnect, and discover something deeper through art.

Why is this workshop different? Because this is not a typical art class. There are no techniques to learn or master, and no outcomes to get right or wrong. Whether you’ve never drawn before or create every day, this experience invites you to show up exactly as you are — with curiosity and without judgment.

Express your interest
WHAT TO EXPECT

Over two gentle hours, you’ll be guided through:

1. A Calming Meditation & Guided Visualisation

We’ll begin with a short, grounding meditation to help settle your body and quiet the mind. From there, you’ll be gently guided through a visualisation — a journey into your inner landscape and imaginative world, where images, sensations, and metaphors can naturally arise and can flow into your creative expression of the art-making process.

No prior meditation experience needed.

2. Expressive Art Making

You’ll then move into your own art-making process where you’ll be supported to follow your own creative flow with materials like pastels and paint on large paper. All art materials are provided.

This is a quiet, personal time to explore your own creative expression through imagery inspired by your own personal experience during the guided visualisation. There’s no pressure for your art to look a certain way — just the freedom to follow whatever arises. It’s all about the process over the product, and there is no right or wrong.

No prior art experience needed.

3. Group Sharing & Reflection

We’ll then come together to share your artwork in a gentle, supportive group setting. Others will reflect what they see and feel, not to analyse, judge or interpret, but to honour your work and offer fresh perspectives. It’s a powerful way to feel seen, gain insight, and connect without any pressure.

Sharing is always optional; you can choose to just listen.
