Art Therapy Days

A typical Art Therapy Day…….using paper and pencil, the use of adjectives to best describe a way of feeling, followed by drawing; taking a line for a walk around the feeling to give it a form; clay work to further define the form of feeling; followed by painting; the use of colour to give amplification to the feeling explored. In summary, the Art Therapy Day’s focus is to give a form to the feelings explored.

There is an open discussion with all participants looking at what has been experienced, new information and any feelings left over from the day’s event.

You will be provided with all art equipment, tea and coffee. There are numerous tea rooms in the village where you can buy lunch. Alternatively you can bring a lunch and eat in the studio.

You will need to wear warm clothes.

No art experience is necessary although experience in art is welcome.

I am an artist, born in Canada and presently living and painting in the U.K. In my painting I work with what I call the ‘interior landscape’; I use images and ideas from my dreams to help me represent visually the mountain ranges and coastal plains inside a person. My studio is an old chapel situated in Abbotsbury, a 600-year-old village in South West Dorset. This is where I work and exhibit my paintings... It is also the place where I hold my Art Therapy workshops. The studio is open to the public all year round.
