Diary Drawing Club – Saturday Evening at the National Theatre ☕🖊️ We meet to draw quietly together, using simple prompts that I’ll share or you’re welcome to draw whatever you feel drawn to. After drawing, we’ll take some time to share and talk about the works, if you feel comfortable doing so. No experience needed. Basic drawing materials will be provided 🎨 Bring your own sketchbook or iPad. But ⏰ Time: 7-9 PM 📍 Meeting Location: Level 5, Royal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, London SE1 8XX, United Kingdom

This first session is about arriving—no pressure, no expectations, just a chance to begin. We’ll gather as a small group and ease into the process of *The Artist’s Way* by Julia Cameron together. You don’t need to have read anything in advance. This session is a space to: ✨ Meet each other and get a feel for the group ✨ Talk about why creativity matters to us (or why we feel disconnected from it) ✨ Introduce the core ideas of *The Artist’s Way*—including Morning Pages and Artist Dates ✨ Set intentions for the 12-week journey ahead We’ll also take some time to reflect on something simple but important: **What did you love doing as a kid? And what happened to it?** Together, we’ll begin creating a **third space**—a place outside of work and daily responsibilities where you can show up consistently, be honest, and reconnect with your creative self at your own pace. **What to expect:** * A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere * Light structure with plenty of room for real conversation * No pressure to share—listening is just as valued **What to bring:** A notebook and pen if you’d like—but mostly just yourself.

Get ready to bring your sketchbook and art supplies for a chilled café sketching session! There'll also be a movie hangout afterwards! You're free to just attend the sketching session. If you'd like to come to the movie hangout, scroll down for more info. No matter your skill level lets grab a coffee and unleash our creativity into our sketchbooks. There's no formal guidance, you'll be free to get on with your own drawings/personal art projects while being able to connect with other local artists. You're welcome to join in on the group conversations or quietly get on with your art studies whatever your preference.

Art Journaling is a fun and simple way to incorporate creativity into everyday life. An art journal is a great place to experiment and try out different approaches to art without the pressure of creating a masterpiece. It is an artistic form of self-expression – instead of using words alone; you will be using various media and different art techniques to express your creativity. In a busy world, largely driven by technology, taking time to be creative can often seem frivolous and indulgent. But studies show that creative activities encourage positivity and significantly improve our wellbeing. Art journaling is an effective way to de-stress and practice self-care. Join us for these drop-in sessions in Art journaling with Sai, an experienced teaching artist, avid art journaler and professional calligrapher. From simple mark making to elaborate mixed media art you will learn a variety of new skills; gain confidence in your artistic ability and develop an amazing creative habit that is both enriching and nourishing. Whether you have five minutes or half an hour to spare, Art journaling will inspire you to be creative, practice self-care and reconnect with yourself. Each week we work with different media and techniques. Sai provides some resources, however please bring an art journal and some basic supplies with you. Contact Sai directly to book bluepaletteartstudio@gmail.com

**The workshop consists of two sessions:** **Sunday 12th and Monday 13th of April** **10.00am- 4.00pm (on-site)** For many of us, working from life -especially with a model- is a cornerstone of our artistic practice. Building on a long tradition, we often reach a point where we crave more personal expression in our work. Whether this urge arises on day one or after years of practice, the question remains: How do we find our unique artistic voice? How can we expand into abstraction or imagination? How do we bridge the gap between working with a model in the studio and continuing our creative journey at home? Sharing from their personal practice, Suzon will guide participants in discovering and nurturing their own creative voice throughout this two-day workshop. An opportunity to expand your creative toolbox and discover new ways of working. **Day 1** We’ll explore visual brainstorming techniques and discover how to infuse our paintings with a deeply personal touch. Focusing on one key concept at a time, we’ll experiment with pushing, stretching, and playing with these ideas to develop a language that feels both personal and intentional. • How can we use values to evoke specific sensations? • Which colours best convey our emotions? • How can our marks and composition and add deeper layers of meaning to our work? By the end of the day, you’ll have learned new skills and ways to engage creatively. Most importantly, you’d have remembered that ‘Learning to paint well’ is one great thing, but ‘Learning to create the paintings that no one else’s but you could paint’ is the true magic! **Day 2, working with a model** We’ll apply our expanded creative toolbox to the unique challenge of working with a model. Moving beyond straightforward representation, we’ll create paintings that are grounded in reality yet elevated by your personal artistic choices. No two paintings will be the same: they’ll each be a mirror of your unique artistic voice. These two days are perfect for anyone eager to deepen their connection to their creative voice and develop a more personal painting practice. Whether you are an experienced painter or new to the practice, Suzon welcomes participants at all levels and with any medium: oil, acrylic, gouache, colour pencils… come with what inspires you! The workshop will take place in a supportive and inspiring environment, encouraging creative risk-taking, curiosity, and the discovery of your own visual signature. We plan to share a vegetarian lunch, optional. **[Info and bookings on our website](https://www.dulwichartgroup.co.uk/product/beyond-figure-painting-explore-your-art-voice/)**

Bring your journal/planner and favourite supplies and spend a couple of hours working on whatever you want. Whether it's a monthly spread, your weekly, junk journalling or memory keeping, come along and be creative! Just want to finally get this to-do list down on paper and organise your priorities? Join us too, everyone is welcome. We will meet at Craft Brewed, Maidstone. Please respond whether you are coming at least a day before, but the earlier the better. The event is free, but donations to cover the cost of meetup subscription are welcomed here: [https://ko-fi.com/bujoclub](https://ko-fi.com/bujoclub)

Welcome to the Art School - 20's & 30's artists Meetup group! This is a community for young artists who are passionate about exploring different mediums and techniques in the world of art. Whether you're a painter, sculptor, photographer, or mixed media artist, this group is the perfect place to connect with like-minded individuals, have a space to work on your craft, and showcase your work. Let's inspire and support each other on our artistic journeys! Whether you're a novice or a seasoned artist, all skill levels are welcome. Join us and unleash your creativity! This month we will be discussing **Frank Santoro**, an American cartoonist, painter, and comics critic known for his expressive lines, experimental page layouts, and vibrant use of color. His graphic novels—including *Storeyville*, *Pompeii*, and *Pittsburgh*—blend personal storytelling with innovative visual structure, often exploring memory, place, and relationships. In addition to his comics, Santoro has been an influential voice in comics education and criticism, co-founding the magazine *ComicsComics* and creating the **Santoro Correspondence Course for Comic Book Makers**, which has helped train and inspire a new generation of cartoonists. Afterwards, we will have time to work on our individual art projects, hang out, and if anyone is interested in feedback on their work, there will be time for that as well.

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.transformlabs.com/services)
