What will I study?

This gentle and supportive painting class is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself and explore your emotions through creativity.

Discover the power of painting as a form of mindfulness. This course blends painting with simple mindfulness practices to help you relax, tune into the present moment and express yourself in a creative way.
