About this Event

Relax. Experiment. Create.

Join my friendly Sketchbook Club: a space to explore drawing and mixed media in a relaxed, social and creative setting. Each session focuses on playful sketchbook activities to help you reconnect with creativity, build confidence, and enjoy the process of making art.


What to Expect

  • A welcoming environment for all levels. No previous experience needed.
  • Fun prompts to spark creativity and experimentation.
  • Work in your own personal sketchbook, building a collection of ideas, textures, and colours that grow over time.
  • Opportunities to share, chat, and exchange inspiration.


Materials

All of the materials will be provided. Only bring a sketchbook (details on the suggested type will be shared), or purchase it from me at the session.

Why Join?

Sketchbook Club is about enjoying art for art’s sake — no pressure, just curiosity, play, and creative connection.


About the Tutor

I am an artist and educator who studied Fine Arts and Art Education in Italy, completing a Bachelor’s degree in Painting with a specialisation in oil painting and a Master’s degree in Art Education. Over the past six years, I have designed and delivered a wide range of art workshops, wellbeing sessions, and heritage-related projects, with a particular focus on using creativity as a tool for connection and self-expression.

In my teaching, I combine my professional expertise with a gentle and inclusive approach, encouraging participants to progress at their own pace. I strongly believe in the transformative power of art and heritage to enhance wellbeing and deeply emphasise the joy of experimentation and discovery, rather than producing perfect results.
