Well done to all that took part this week in my second Pen Drawing for Well-being workshop.
Many hadn’t tried art since their school days so there were lots of surprised & happy participants - please scroll to see the beautiful pen work created. In these art for wellness workshops we just use black biro & regular paper to show how accessible & easy it is to get creative.
These workshops are all about the process of drawing not the end results. We talked botanical drawing, pen drawing techniques & how art can help alleviate stress & anxiety & boost well-being - perfect timing as it’s
A big thank you to for awarding me a Creative Community Commission for a second year - after seeing how transformative these art workshops were last year. OUTSIDE has supported this art project which have been funded by Arts Council England - so a huge thanks to them too!

What a fabulous venue for an art workshop in the Peak District. We had great fun at my mixed media workshop combining collage, watercolour & pen to create beautiful individual artworks (scroll to see).
Perfect for beginners & those more experienced artists wanting to try a new art technique.
It was followed by a delicious lunch in the glass Garden Room - scroll to see the beautiful space.
I’ll be back at stunning Wildhive Callow Hall this Saturday 9th May from 10 am for a Botanical Pen & Watercolour workshop event. In this floral art workshop we plan to head into the hotel’s bloom laden garden for some pen sketching practice. A few last places are currently available so if you’d like to take part please call Wildhive on 01335 300900 or email [email protected] - hope to see you there 🌷🌸 🖊️ 🎨

Belper Art Trail Day 1 - come & say hello tomorrow Bank Holiday Monday.
I’m in room 107 in Strutts Building (parking available too!). Head upstairs to find me & fellow artists.
Scroll to see my set up & the last pic is of today’s pen drawing based on my grandma’s embroidery that I’ve been working on whilst here.
Look forward to seeing you 🌺

Yesterday was my first Pen Drawing for Well-being workshop for this year, so I thought I’d share some pics of the beautiful artwork created by participants just using the humble biro pen. Many people hadn’t done art since school & I think it’s fair to say everyone did brilliantly & all took a lot away from the workshop.
These workshops are all about the process of pen drawing not the end result - taking away the stress of needing to complete a finished piece.
We talked all things pen drawing, botanicals, wellness & how art can help manage stress, anxiety & boost wellbeing.
A huge thanks to for selecting me for a second year for a Creative Community Commission to run these art for well-being workshops in the Staffordshire Moorlands. OUTSIDE has supported this project which is funded by Arts Council England - so many thanks to them too!

If you’re interested in attending one of Pen Drawing for Wellbeing workshops or another of my workshops please just get in touch (link in Bio) or please take a look at my website Art Workshops page.

I’m excited to see the results from my fine art collage workshop event at beautiful in the Peak District this Sunday 26th April.
Everyone creates completely individual artwork using watercolour, collage & pen. Scroll to see the fantastic collage artwork created at my last mixed media collage workshop at Wildhive Callow Hall - plus take a peek at the stunning glass Garden Room where the delicious lunch afterwards is held.
There are a few places left on my mixed media workshop this Sunday 26 April at Wildhive - so if you fancy trying something arty & new to book please call Wildhive on 01335 300900 or email [email protected]
This relaxed & friendly art workshop is for all artistic abilities & all materials & equipment are supplied - so hope to see you there for some joyful & creative fun 🌷 🎨 🖊️ ✂️

A treat to pop in & restock some of my artwork to the Museum of Making Makers Shop - a lovely place for a potter or for some delicious cake downstairs at the cafe.
Thanks again to Derby Museums for stocking my botanical art - my cards in particular (scroll to see them) always do well 🌺🌷🌸
