Explore with Art Circles
As a young girl, I discovered the healing power of art. I was always busy playing and creating, and this experience helped me develop my own style of art and painting. It also sparked my curiosity about how art could benefit others. Alongside my formal studies, I've taken several informal courses in art counselling to deepen my practice. Now, I've developed workshops and activities designed to help people explore and gain self-awareness and healing through art.
Groups can be adapted or customised to your needs.

About the groups
Step into the world of healing art in the 'Explore with Art' circle! Join me in this supportive environment where we creatively explore emotions and experiences using various art mediums and activities. This group is a nurturing space that encourages emotional well-being and self-awareness through engaging art activities. It's important to note that this is not an art class—our objective is not to create perfect art pieces but rather to use art materials as therapeutic tools for self-exploration. This session offers a unique opportunity to connect with others, express yourself, and embark on a journey of personal discovery, fun and relaxation. No prior art experience is necessary—just an open heart and mind. Come join our circle and unlock the healing power of art!
What to expect?
The process
Join us for a relaxing and calm art circle. We'll begin with a fun warm-up to help everyone settle in. This will be followed by an hour-long guided art activity. Afterwards, participants are welcome to share their thoughts and experiences in a supportive environment. The art circle provides a confidential space for creative exploration and connection.
Fees
Group participation is R250-R300 per person (sliding scale).
