Art sessions & classes for Fun and Health
Playful Art as Therapy for Adults
What's Sarah's story? For years I juggled working as an Executive Assistant in high level, high pressured corporate environments such as Investment Banking, Finance and Insurance. I used my creative thinking to find alternative solutions to problems and was often considered quirky but it meant I was successful at my job.... but did I enjoy it? No, it certainly didn't feed the soul...but then we all use the same lines ' we have to pay the bills' etc etc..' Â so I started thinking how can I pay the bills and feed the soul .. there must be another way? surely? Â







I am so so lucky to meet some amazing people by running art as therapy creative sessions and classes. It is a truly rewarding (and often humbling) experience, and I am always touched by the comments I receive. I am so glad that 2 hours creating and being encouraged to get I touch with your inner child helps you both physically and mentally... no matter what age or ability you are - my sessions are for all over 18 and I aim for them to be as inclusive as possible.
