This isn’t a typical painting adult art class in Brighton. This isn’t a “paint by numbers” workshop or “copy how I paint” approach.

In this art workshop we will do things differently:

The main tool we will be using is not the brush. It’s our mind - free from limitations.

We will paint intuitively! Spontaneously to the music, allowing the paint to evolve and reveal itself freely into an explosion of colours, patterns, marks, shapes, texture on the canvas.

We will paint big! Big brush movements, a bold colour pallet and even the fingers. The intention is to let go of any expectations.

We will get messy! This is not about making pretty things. It’s rare opportunity to let go of perfectionism and experiment with a wide range of art materials (acrylic, watercolours, pastels, chalk etc) to free our inner artist and find our creative voice in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

We will get creative! Art has no limitations, we use every day tools: window squeegee, credit card, bubble wrap, fork, scraper, feather, chopstick, ANYTHING to get our imagination going! Suddenly the concept of “painting” expands! It’s a painting wonderland full of possibilities.

We will free ourselves from limiting beliefs! This dynamic and creative free-flow painting style will move us through past fears, creative blocks and self-doubt into joy and free-flow creative state of freedom!

We will express ourselves! By opening our mind and listening to our heart, we can express our soul without boundaries or judgments. While experimenting with painting, we will build a relationship with who we are, reconnect to our inner child and fully express ourselves including the wisdom that is forever inside us. There is such freedom and joy in this!

Who is this class for?

It doesn’t matter if you’ve never painted before or you are a PRO! My painting workshop experience is a joy-filled, judgment-free zone! Everyone is welcome. Even those who think they aren’t creative or can’t paint or draw. Also, this is a great opportunity for creative types who haven’t picked up a paintbrush in a while but are longing to express themselves through art. We can play and feel like a kid again without worrying about the end result. Nobody will judge what we create together. We are all on a journey to find our inner artist.

The people who come to this class are from all walks of life: freelancers, entrepreneurs, website designers, yoga teachers, success coaches, parents….whatever! This could be fun and creative way to celebrate your birthday, anniversary or any other occasion in Brighton.

What to expect on the day?

We start with getting to know each other, setting intention and embodiment exercises (breath or meditation) to help you ground, become more present and open to the free-flowing creative state.

Through fun, guided group and individual creative painting practice, we’ll explore wide range of art materials, experiment with an unconventional tools and try many abstract painting techniques including layering, mark making, texture. All centred around experimentation, fun and letting go…

After a delicious vegetarian lunch together, you will have time to develop your own intuitive painting on large canvas which you will take home with you at the end of the workshop.

“I loved this workshop. Magdalena sets up a warm, inviting, creative space. I like the balance in the day, the time to explore, experiment, and discover, as well as time to reflect, rest and contemplate. Magdalena gave me sensitive support and encouragement, coaching me forward in my own unfolding process. She has such care and generosity of spirit. And I loved all the nibbles, the array of coffee and teas, as well as the gentle social time enjoying a healthy lunch. The day acted as the spring board I needed. I now feel much more confident. I recommend this intuitive painting adventure!”

“A wonderful experience that let me connect to my inner creativity. As someone who has a bit of a block around being artistic and feels sometimes very judgemental of what I create this workshop was a breath of fresh air. It really allowed me to let go and have fun - and for the first time in years (probably since I was a child) feel in flow and totally immersed in creation. Magdalena was a wonderful teacher/ guide and her approach really enabled me to let go of conditioning around how art ‘should’ be done.”
