Mums 'n' Bubs

This workshop invites mums to enjoy a creative experience with paint and colour, while their bubs rest or play nearby. 

Please note: for safety reasons, non mobile bubs only.

Arrive anytime, as regular demonstrations ensure you won’t miss a step.

Discover Marie’s unique 'Freedom Technique,' an intuitive abstract painting method designed to ease stress, foster relaxation, and inspire mental clarity.

Marie will support you in overcoming any apprehension about art, affirming that everyone can create expressive, dynamic pieces.

With no rules, mistakes, or paintbrushes involved, this process is as effortless as child’s play.

You’ll complete a mini canvas within the session, leaving with a sense of accomplishment and a charming artwork displayed on its own easel.

The Benefits

Art holds profound value for mothers, serving as a powerful tool for self expression, emotional healing, and personal growth.  Engaging with art can offer mothers a much needed respite from the demands of daily life, providing a space to reconnect with themselves and their emotions. 

Emotional Expression and Healing

Motherhood often brings a complex mix of emotions - joy, exhaustion, love, and sometimes grief.  Art provides a non-verbal outlet for these feelings.  Allowing mothers to process experiences that might be difficult to articulate.  Art therapy, for instance, has been shown to help mothers navigate perinatal mood disorders, trauma, and identity shifts.  By offering a safe, creative space for expression.

In Summary 

Art offers mothers a multifaceted means of expression, healing and connection.  Whether through personal creation and/or shared experiences with others.  Art serves as a vital resource for nurturing both the individual and the family.
