join this small visionary art group

~ EMERGING WITH SPRING

Term 3 

Term 3 22 Feb - 28 March 2024 

~ A chance to make work with a small welcoming group, with intention, and a spirit of exploration.

It won't matter if you call yourself an artist or have never drawn before. This is a space to create gently. Anchored in nature. Letting images unfold from your observation. Images create visions. Visions create images.

About the facilitator:

I’m Eleanor - a local artist on Dartmoor. I am also an art therapist and facilitate transformational art process for groups. In these sessions I gently facilitate. Call you into focus, bring guidance, dissolve boundaries and create places for new ways of seeing and new technique. It is intended as an evening of warmth, enjoyment and support for the visionary potential of our own imaginations.

Materials:

Some materials will be available, but you will be asked to bring what you need. A suggested list also provided on booking. Opportunities for making winter inks from fruit and plants will be part of the evenings.

Wise rules we follow:  1) use high quality materials and 2) be consistent with the size of your work so that the series you create can hang well in a room. The second is negotiable - but it helps you create a container for a transformational body of work that might come to life on a wall.

The evening starts from 6.30pm. The fire will be on, and soup and local bread will be on offer. You don't have to stay until 9pm if that's a long time for you. I wanted to create a time that breathes, and allows for artistic flow.

Limited to 4 places. £120 for each term of 6 weeks.

NEXT TERM starts THURSDAY 22 FEB 2024
