We have a Free Tier and a set of papers for you to access for the month and a series of exclusive posts and videos on the tier so that you can wet your feet and see how you like it.   

Free Tier Papers 

The aim for the papers are to encourage you to do something creative with what you have and provide you with beautiful imagery that you can play around with.

 

It is very important to find ways in which you can motivate and encourage yourself, especially in those times where you are feeling off or if you want a low energy project or even only have a short time.

The digital downloads are available on Patreon for you to enjoy, why not come and check it out and have a play with the papers.

Who are you Creating For - Arts and Wellness Cafe

 

Come and join us in the Arts and Wellness Cafe, where I share insights about the power and purpose of creativity, and knowing who we are creating for - without our own needs getting lost in the mix.  

Creativity is not only just a creative pastime but also a vital tool for personal expression, healing, and inspiration. 

We have to remember that creativity is not a solitary act, but a shared journey that can uplift, inspire and create connection. 

I would love to have your perspective, join us in the discussion.

International Soul Art Day 2025

 

Laura Hollick was our Host and I was one of the guest artists for International Soul Art Day and if you missed the event you can still see the recording for the session with us connecting and creating live as a group and with an international audience around the world also joining in.

Here is the painting that I completed on the day, I used the sea grape leaves to get texture on the paper and then collaged the paper onto the surface.  The ladies emerged and held space.  It was interesting creating live with the other artists.

Slow Stitching and Crochet Threads

 

I have been trying out some new crochet yarn that I came across and I enjoy using it in my slow stitched projects.  In the video I talk more about some of the threads I have been using.

They come in a wide range of colors and this is just a small sample I purchased to use in some of my slow stitched projects.  Obviously, there are quite a few brands as well.  These are the ones that I have tried out so far.  

I also use a range of embroidery threads as well in my projects.

You can check out the Supplies Here I created an amazon list for the ones I have brought which you can check out.

This is my project so far.  I have been sharing the progress on my YT Channel during April and you can see the progress videos and a couple of projects on creating your own wax resist projects.
