Art for Wellbeing

Guided by Base resident artist Richard Francis Bellin, these sessions promote mental wellness and self-expression through art. 

Connect with your inner selves by visualising a deep sea within, break free from constraints with free flowing oils, delve into the link between art and music, and more! 

This 10-week course will include:
Painting your internal sea – Explore your inner selves by visualising a deep sea within and then bring it to life through painting.

Painting to music – Delve into the link between art and music, touch on art history looking into style Kandinsky and his condition synaesthesia, and paint to your favourite music.

Painting until we see something – A free flowing oil session where you will be taught a variety of techniques designed to help artists break free from the constraints of replicating images or photographs, as this can often hinder true artistic expression.

Glow-in-the dark painting – Paint in phosphorus glow-in-the-dark paints. Have fun painting space, nebulas, and galaxies.

Sacred geometry – Explore the geometry of the Earth, connecting with the Devine. A thought-provoking workshop that covers science, mathematics, philosophy, and art.
