I love painting these snowy scenes, but boy, does the thick white paint take some time to set!
More coming as soon as the paint is dry 😊❄️❄️❄️

You may have heard .... I'm revving up and putting plans in place for a fresh start in the New Year ... and as part of this I'm retiring a lot of my old print range.

So you can save 20% this month on all prints, before this range is 'sunsetted' at the end of November.

I have been painting and producing prints from my studio in West Wales for the last 30 years, and the time has come to move on... ... don't worry I'm still painting!! ... and I'll be doing something else just as creative, exciting and this time collaborative too.

Here's a selection of the winter-themed prints available. If you like one, either message me or have a look on the website

So, if there's a print you love, now is the time to act.

Quote 20 at checkout for the discount.

Today I was feeling stuck in my new business venture ... unconfident and bogged down.

I was expecting this, and rather than fighting it, I embraced it, embraced the shadow side of me these feelings exposed.

So I thought about how I encourage artists who feel stuck.

My advice - the magic always lies just beyond the comfort zone.

This is the one most important thing about making art, and making life😉😉

SLOW DOWN. Swap rush for reflection, noise for silence, find the space between.

Feeling this?

November - letting go, making space✨

Hey sweeties - news about a little free workshop for you coming up this weekend

Hey sweeties - news about a little free workshop for you coming up this weekend

The 5 week Winter term of The Art Class starts November 12th.

It's live online each Wednesday evening and is recorded for catch up.

My role is to help you by making creativity and art simpler.
Each week, I distil the creative and painting process down to its core, working on demonstration paintings and responding to the group's questions.

In a world that is becoming more complex and serious by the minute, this method of teaching releases pressure on people's minds .... and resources. You don't need experience, and you don't need expensive materials.

It's a small group limited to just ten, with a focus on individual support, community and connection through these winter weeks.

Places are filling up so please don't delay. Come take your seat and find your place with us, you are so welcome.

Link in bio, or DM me for more info

This week I’ve been sending out an email with a link each day to one of my children’s art workshops.

It was delightful to wake up this morning to this feedback.

Today’s the last day of half term for most of us and I’ll be sending out a final email today with a link to another workshop for children (but I do know that some adults have been enjoying these as well and why not!)

if you’d like the email, either pop over to the website and sign up for my newsletter or DM me or email and I will talk to you on the list.

Happy creating my friends

Hey friends, I just wanted to run something by you before I commit to a booking.

I’ve been offered a hall in Newcastle Emlyn here in West Wales to hold a painting class in the afternoon on Saturday, the 5th of December and Saturday 12th of December.

I’m thinking just 3 hours each time- come to one or both - and have tea and cake and paint along with me. Everybody will have a canvas and paints provided and just follow along with what I’m painting and take home a picture!

Sounds like fun?? if you would be interested could you let me know? Just so I can judge interest before I commit to booking the hall.

It’ll be a bit like the Paint and Prosecco evenings that I do, but without the Prosecco, it’ll be more tea and cake. So it will suitable for groups (office party with a twist anyone?) and people who just want to have a go at painting.

Let me know xx

Day 2 of my free Half Term Happiness painting workshop videos for children - and grown ups who want to play.

These videos were filmed for primary school age during lockdown in 2020 - but many grown-ups have said they have enjoyed and found them useful, so go ahead and channel that inner child and have some fun!

Materials - cardboard or paper, crayons, paints... nothing fancy what ever you have to hand.

These are very amateur videos - please don't expect high quality, or even any, editing, but they are from the heart and I hope they will encourage anyone watching to pick up some paint and have a go.

If you're on my mailing list, today's video will already be with you - if you'd like the films - please DM me your email and I'll send the links over to you.

Just as we suspected Art is good for you.

The good news today is that a recent study by Dr Woods (Kings College)found that:

“From a scientific perspective, the most exciting out-take is that art had a positive impact on three different body systems – the immune, endocrine and autonomic systems – at the same time. This is a unique finding and something we were genuinely surprised to see.“

So there you have it! feeling good is not rocket science. Take a walk, get some coffee, talk to a friend, and go see some Art.

Most art galleries are free to go and see.
This one of mine is on show @oriel_cardi_bach and Cardigan, along with work by eight other artists. There are some other great galleries in Cardigan to visit too:
@orielcanfas @vladart.co.uk

Have a day out and take the children

Remember yesterday’s dog vote question?

Well, they got in and the painting got finished and it got delivered to the lovely Jess at Oriel Cardi Bach in Cardigan West Wales.

Albert and I then went to deliver the new leaflets to @Crwst at Poppit had some tea English coffee from them and got a walk on the beach.

That’s what I call a beautiful day!

😂😂 probably not!

but I wanted to show you this and ask your opinion. I don’t think this is quite finished yet. I’m thinking of adding some dogs running about in the leaves.

What do you think? Dogs? No dogs?

…. Connecting with people who fall in love with a painting.

Here I am in my studio painting away getting inspiration putting it onto canvas - calling it finished - even though I feel it never is. And then maybe a week later maybe a month later maybe a year later it’ll be 10 years later. Someone sees that painting and wants in their life.

The thrill of this connection is indescribable, it completes the creative circle.

Some days are really extra special like today. ✨🎨🥰 I sold not one but two of these beautiful little Dog Star paintings, to separate people and separate parts of the country.

So where I wonder is the new owner for the third one? This little guy on the end with the star between his tail and his nose, is looking for his forever home.
It’s acrylic on canvas, 27 x 27 cm framed and it’s yours for £295. International postage not a problem.

DM me.🥰😘😘

Many thanks to my friends @crwst.cymru Poppit for letting me know my flyers had run out.
A great opportunity to order more - and I thought this time it would be nice to have a full feature of RNLI Poppit on the front for folks to pick up and keep.

Win, Win, Win. Isn't it nice when people are nice to each other 😊

Apologies for the poor quality image - it's a printers mock up. The new flyers will be delivered next week

Many thanks to my friends @crwst.cymru Poppit for letting me know my flyers had run out.

It's certainly been interesting weather for surfing the last few days in West Wales. Tucked up in the comfort of my studio this is how I like to imagine it 🎨😊😂

I often think about the realities we create with minds. It’s always a very interesting thought to me.

My background is in psychology and it always fascinates me the crossover between how we create our art and how we create our lives.

What do you think?

There must be something in the air ....... calendars are flying out of the studio this week.

I'm excited because I'm sure 2026 is going to be a good year!

These are printed on high-quality glossy thick paper, made in Wales, and can be framed (at a later date!).

They are a limited edition each year - so get yours now, as they will sell out 😊

Living is an art.
Painting is easy so long as you keep in mind that it’s only paint and it’s only canvas.
There’s a lot that art can teach us about living and one of those things is not to take ourselves so seriously. Have fun. Play. Be happy.

Last few days painting inspiration.

I LOVE being alive to inspiration from lots of different environments. Back in the studio and can’t wait to see what filters out through this lot.

Somes .... you've just got to get out from behind that bush and let your little light shine .....

Much as I really don't like to boast .... I really do run a damn good art class - and here's some feedback from returning students.

"A massive thank you Helen, as always your words resonated with my soul... and I have been inspired" LR

resonating with you? join me for 5 weeks of Art Class - Art That Awakens.
