Art Journey Workshop with Julie Bradshaw-Drury & Wild Selkie Wellbeing

July 6 @ 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm

£30

Come join Wild Selkie Wellbeing and Julie Bradshaw-Drury for an afternoon creating art inspired by guided meditations and sound journeys that we will go on together.

  • We will start the afternoon by gathering in the community hut and running over the afternoon and introducing ourselves.
  • Moving to Heron House, we will take you on the first journey of the day – a guided meditation.
  • Once the meditation is over, we will remain in silence as we move back up to the community hut to work on our first series of art of the day.
  • Stopping our art session after around an hour, we can break for snacks and hot drinks while we have an opportunity to discuss the meditation and art we have created.
  • Returning to Heron House, our second journey of the day will be a sound based one using various instruments such as singing bowls, tubular bells, rain sticks and rattles.
  • Following the sound journey, once again we will return to the community hut in silence to work on art inspired by that journey.
  • Ending the day by talking through our sound journey and the art inspired by it.

Julie Bradshaw-Drury is an acclaimed artist with 40+ years experience. She likes to work in mixed media which allows her the freedom of combining many textures and materials to illustrate her art.

James Mead of Wild Selkie Wellbeing is an accredited Sound Bath Practitoner as well as artist and photographer. In his art, James likes to work in either encaustic wax art or using plant material and watercolour paint or a dying process to create naturally inspired images.

Tickets for the afternoon cost £30. Space is limited to just 5 people so booking is essential.

Do I need to bring my own art supplies?

We will provide basic art supplies to use, but if there is a specific medium you like to work in please bring along your own equipment and tools. Art does not also need to be limited to just visual arts, some people may find they are inspired to write poetry, prose or song.

What else do I need to bring?

We have comfortable cushions and furs in Heron House to sit and lie on for the meditations and sound journey, but please bring a blanket and eye mask if you have one.

What hot drinks and snacks will be available?

We will have fruit teas, squash, dark chocolate and a selection of fruits available.
