Learn intuitive, free-flowing, expressive abstract painting!
In this dynamic art workshop, you'll learn the art of spontaneous, intuitive abstract painting on a small canvas. With a bold colour palette and fast brush movements, we'll embrace the joy of creating without expectations.
But I have to warn you…
This isn’t a typical painting art class in Brighton. This isn’t a “paint by numbers” workshop or “copy how I paint” approach.
In this class we do things differently:
You will let go of perfectionism by resisting the urge to paint “pretty” or “perfect” or “easy”…. you’ll have a full permission to be free, spontaneous, brave and messy.
You will discover the intuitive abstract mark-making and layering process (no artistic experience is necessary).
You will express yourself with colours, shapes and texture and create a piece of abstract artwork on a small canvas that reflects your innermost feelings.
Unique opportunity to experiment with different mixed media art materials: acrylic, gesso and watercolour paint, pastels, charcoal and other art materials.
Best of all, you'll take home your own one-of the kind abstract artwork on a small canvas and a collection of mini-abstract artworks that can be framed.
This 3.5 hours introduction to intuitive abstract painting workshop will take place in my private Art studio in Brighton & Hove, Sussex, 1 hour from London. This workshop is for adults and is perfect for beginners.
What to expect:
Grounding Circle: We start by getting to know each other, setting intentions and embodiment exercises (breath & meditation) to help you ground, become more present and open to the free-flowing creative state.
Playful Exploration: Together, we will explore various art materials like acrylics, gesso, charcoal, pastels and my favourite abstract painting techniques by creating a collection of mini-abstracts on paper. All centred around experimentation, expression and letting go.
Create your own abstract painting: express yourself with intuitive abstract painting on small canvas
Meaningful Connection: Bond with other participants over herbal tea and delicious nourishing treats in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. If the weather permits it we will take full advantage of time in the garden.

Please note: This is not about creating beautiful art or being good at painting. It’s a way to express yourself, experiment with art materials while having fun. With abstract painting there is no right or wrong so you can’t make mistakes. Your hands will move intuitively, without thought. I will be there to inspire you and guid you. Together we will learn to let go, surrender and see what emerges in front of us. No previous experience is required.
Cancelation Policy: due to the nature of the event, advance art supply and canvas purchase and limited space capacity (6 spots only), I will not be able to offer a refund once a purchase has been made. In case of illness or emergency, please contact me directly through infomagdalenaphotography@gamil.com as I might be able to transfer your ticket to another future event.
