Pass The Brush Video Experience

 

Here is the video of my creative journey to Mixed Media Art which I shared as part of Pass The Brush Art Experience..

Thank you for joining me, you can also connect with me on  Instagram and check out some of the other artists.

 

The aim of the event is to show solidarity within the art community and to amplify black artists so their voices can be heard and art can be seen in a broader audience.  Connect with each other as artists and see what our similarities and differences.

Let me know what you are getting on with.

Here are the artists that shared their spaces and their audiences. You can check out their instagram pages and see some of their amazing work.

Arts and Wellness - Fabric Journals

Arts and Wellness - Working with Fabrics and Journals

Welcome to Arts and Wellness Episode 233 which you can also listen on the Podcast.  Check out the video where you will see how I use the fabric scraps in the art journal, making use of the texture and colour that comes from the material.

Taking time to create enables you to focus on you and work on areas of your life that need some thought.  It is a great stress reliever as well.  There are many ways in which you can take part in the arts from participating, watching someone create or looking at the finished art in a gallery setting.

Check out the video HERE where you get a glimpse in the studio and we work on an art journal with fabric scraps

Working with scraps in Art Journal as a background

On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

Lots of yummy colour on the baby wipes
