🌊 Slow down and paint waves 🎨
Take a break offline, slow down and join local artist Katia at The Light Box in Torquay for a creative art workshop painting the ocean waves!
In this special mixed media session, you’ll learn how to paint the rolling ocean waves with acrylics and impasto to create vibrant texture, use watercolours to capture the colours and atmosphere of clear blue sky and experiment with drawing techniques to add details to your own seascape!
Whether you're an experienced artist or a beginner, this workshop is perfect for anyone seeking to explore their creativity in a supportive and relaxed environment. The process of creating art will help you connect with your inner self, enhance your wellbeing, and offer a mindful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Engaging in art as a process—rather than focusing solely on the final outcome—can be a powerful form of self-care. It offers a mindful, hands-on way to slow down, express emotions, and reconnect with yourself in the present moment.
The act of guided drawing and painting becomes a meditative practice, allowing thoughts to flow freely and put mind at ease.
By shifting attention to colour, texture, and form, the mind is gently guided away from daily pressures and into a space of curiosity and calm. Art-making can foster emotional release, build self-awareness, and nourish a sense of inner peace—all essential elements of self-care.
Experience the healing power of art as a form of self-care and relaxation and take home your very own version of ocean-inspired mixed-media painting on stretched canvas!
