Welcome to Sensing Colour Classes

Artist painting abstract artwork in a studio with natural light.

Where the art of feeling your way into the vibrant world of colour becomes a transformative journey. With over 22 years of exploration in Artistic and Art Therapy teachings, I invite you to join me in uncovering the essence of colour through practical studio sessions.

In these intimate gatherings, we delve into the dynamic movements of colour, painting from the very soul of each hue. Guided by varying themes, we explore ‘painting out of the colour’, igniting a profound relationship with the spirit of colour, connecting with the whispers of nature and elemental beings as they dance through our creations.

Throughout the year, our classes offer a sanctuary for beginners and those with painting experience. With small class sizes, each participant receives personalised attention, nurturing their artistic growth and expression.

From the fluidity of Wet on Wet watercolour to the ethereal beauty of Veil Painting, we explore a variety of mediums including Charcoal, Chalk Pastel, and Clay. Held in the cosy embrace of my home STUDIO/GALLERY at Peka Peka, Wellington, New Zealand and online. These sessions are a sanctuary for creative exploration and self-discovery.

Come, immerse yourself in the magic of colour, and embark on a journey of artistic expression and spiritual connection.
