Teens are invited to make art their own way—using creativity as a form of healing, self-expression, and exploration. This supportive and relaxed class encourages connection, confidence, and fun, while offering a safe space to make new friends. The focus is on process and discovery, helping each teen develop their own unique creative voice rather than aiming for a finished result. Together we explore painting, drawing, jewellery making, sculpture, textiles, recycled materials, and gentle art-therapy-informed processes.

Suitable for ages 12–16.

Transpersonal art therapy uses art to explore feelings, thoughts, and a deeper sense of self. It helps people express what is hard to say with words. Through drawing, painting, and symbols, it supports calmness, confidence, and personal growth. This approach encourages imagination, mindfulness, and connection to inner strength.

Private art classes focus on building skills, confidence, and creative freedom. Students learn techniques step by step while exploring their own style. With personalised guidance, they grow at their own pace, develop stronger art foundations, and gain the confidence to create meaningful, expressive work in a supportive space.

These classes are grounded in an art-as-therapy approach, where creativity is used to support emotional expression, confidence, and wellbeing as well as skill development. Children are welcomed into a calm, encouraging space where their inner world, imagination, and unique voice are respected. Alongside the teacher, each child creates a gentle creative wish list, helping them explore strengths, interests, and feelings through different art forms. We hold the belief that there is no right or wrong in art—art is a language for self-expression, growth, and self-trust.

Students are guided through drawing on toned paper with charcoal and pencil, painting on canvas, and exploring a range of materials including acrylics, watercolours, clay, paper, craft, and sculpture. Each medium is introduced as a way to regulate the nervous system, build focus, and support emotional resilience while learning technique.

Each term includes:
• Foundations of drawing and painting and colour theory
• All materials provided
• Meaningful artworks that reflect your child’s inner world and growth
