Program Schedule & Themes

Week 1: Colour & Emotion
Create a colour wheel infused with emotional meaning, using guided prompts to explore how colour connects to feeling.

Week 2: Landscape Painting – Reflecting on Your Environment & Space
Start a nature-inspired painting that reflects both external surroundings and inner emotional states.

Week 3: Completing Your Landscape
Finalize your landscape painting with support and guidance, and explore how art can offer a sense of place, memory, and calm.

Week 4: Self-Portrait & Self-Compassion
Explore how you see yourself through self-portraiture — a powerful tool for practicing self-love and acceptance.

Week 5: Personalize Your Portrait
Add creative elements that reflect your identity, story, or symbolic strengths. This stage fosters a sense of agency, imagination, and self-recognition.

Week 6: Abstract Expression + Group Reflection
Let go of perfection and explore abstract painting as a way to express emotion freely. We’ll close the program with a reflective group conversation to share insights, experiences, and creative breakthroughs.
