Hi Emma, I wouldn’t be able to do this in real time. If I sign up and pay, is it possible for me to watch and follow the Zoom later in my own time?

Oh yes it will be recorded in full on zoom and I upload it a few days later. If you enrol you can then jump on any future live session (or even my January workshop-same format and content) and still have the recording to refer to for as long as you like. Hope that helps 🌿

I illustrate my own books & have taught w'shops on
BBC Countryfile & the V & A museum.
.
I trained as a molecular cell biologist & in my w'shops I explain how creative activity such as drawing shifts our brain biochemistry to alleviate anxiety & lift mood.

I design the 3-4 hrs of each workshop to dial down your stress hormone & it's a great way to begin a regular creative practice to improve mental health in the New Year.

Enrolment also includes an exclusive 10% off beautiful stationery from pen & paper nirvana
