🎨 No Paintbrushes - Cafe Creativity – Abstract Painting with Marie Wilkinson

No rules. No mistakes. No pressure.

Join us for a vibrant session of abstract painting in a relaxed, creative space where no experience is needed!

You’ll unleash your imagination using unexpected tools like cardboard tubes, cut-up plastic, old toothbrushes, piksters, natural sea sponges, and gum nuts. Items that might have ended up in the bin become your instruments of joy.

All while sipping delicious drinks and enjoying wholesome treats from Sasida Cafe

This is painting made playful. Whether you come solo, with friends, family, or for a quirky date, you’ll explore intuitive expression through what Marie calls ‘The Freedom Technique’ and ‘Mind-LESS-Presence.’ The art of creating without overthinking. You’ll bust through creative blocks, trust your inner spark, and maybe even surprise yourself.

This is for you if…
🥳 You’re craving light-hearted, soul-nurturing fun.
🎨 You want to try painting in a relaxed, encouraging space.
🌈 You feel your creativity needs a boost or refresh.
🤗 Life has been heavy, and you need a shot of good vibes.
🪴 You’ve been giving to others and need time for yourself.
😱 You’re scared of “stuffing up” - don’t worry, you can’t!
🤥 Someone once told you that "you’re no good at art” - it’s not true!

Why it’s good for you:
Marie brings years of experience as a visual artist and community arts facilitator, plus a Diploma in Creative Arts and Health. She knows first-hand how creative play boosts confidence, opens new ways of thinking, and supports wellbeing. Science agrees: art can lift your mood, enhance relationships, and even be good for your brain.

Think of it as colour therapy in action. Like watching a stunning sunset or ocean waves, only this time you create the beauty.

✔ All materials (no need to bring a thing)
✔ A welcoming, encouraging space
✔ Nutritious delights from the well loved Sasida Cafe
✔ Your own meaningful, unique artwork to take home
