Pissing Around With Paint

Friday 31st January 7pm-9pm at Alta in Whalley

Spend a couple of hours pissing around with paints,  learning how to express emotions and begin to unpack that baggage in a positive and creative way. 

As an experienced head or art, running my own business, and suffering from past traumas that were affecting my day to day life, my mental and physical health, to the point of suicide attempt.

I have done a lot of work on my own mind. I realised that, after being forced to stop through chronic illness, I had time to really think about why my mind was still so against me. 

With over 2 years of research and study in the world of trauma, I came to understand the science of trauma in the brain, and how this can be addressed. 

We have a choice. 

We will be looking  the connection between colours and emotions and how to use abstract art to begin to help to understand how we can change our mindset from having negative, damaging thoughts, to positive ones. 

The goal is to produce an energetic, colourful piece or 2, and to come away understanding that we have a choice how we feel, and framing the feeling of “that was bloody amazing!” 

No prior skills required, all equipment is supplied, just bring your open mind, your energy and maybe your least favourite clothes… as this can get messy!
