Painting by Mary Fedden ... a hero and influence of mine. I have learned such a lot from studying her work.
She is an absolute genius in the understated, but expert use of colour value and design.

#Thankyou lovely art people who visited the studio yesterday. It’s so wonderful to see you. And it’s just such a thrill when a person finds their painting being able to observe how it makes them feel the smile that it gives them - priceless.

He’s a selection of original paintings that are on view at the studio if you if you’d like to see any of these, you can check them out on my website, or you can get in touch and come and visit the studio yourself. I’m in West Wales and details on the website.

Thanks again lovely people

Starting my studio day with journaling pages in the garden. Because how can you start a new painting unless you have your big idea already in mind and heart?

Want to know more about journaling as a creative artist practice? Drop a yes in the comments for a free video intro,

This isn’t just a painting workshop. It’s a wake-up call to your creative power.

We’re done with perfectionism.
We’re done with “not good enough.”
We’re done waiting for the right time.

If you've ever felt the pull to create—even if it scares you—this is your space.

Three days. Real paint. Real freedom. Real you.

You’ll be guided by me, Helen Elliott—artist, mentor, creative catalyst—with over 25 years of experience helping people crack open their creativity and reclaim their voice through art.

Whether you’re a beginner or ready to reignite your creative fire, you’re welcome here.

What to expect:

🎨 Gentle, powerful art instruction that meets you exactly where you are

🌈 Safe space to express, explore, and maybe even surprise yourself

🌀 Release of self-doubt, fear, and the “shoulds”

💫 Deep connection to your own creative rhythm—and others walking this path

🌿 West Wales beauty to inspire every brushstroke

One past participant said:

"Attending was quite simply the best thing I have done for myself in many years."

And that’s what this is: a gift to yourself.
.
.
.
Non- painting partners and dogs are very welcome.

Luxury accommodation and evening meals available too.

DM me for all the info, or have a look at www.helenelliott.net/workshops

Sitting here in Llangrannog about to do some sketching and also thinking of you, lovely reader.

This is a diagram of my process of teaching art over the last 15 years.

The top bit of the iceberg is the techniques and materials, the practical skills. Easily learnable in a few days.

The bottom part with the Q - the biggest part by far, the the part we need to make us creative, inspired, effective and resourced as artists.

What is it ? it and why the Q?

Quite simply it’s the skills that we learn around self awareness that lead to creative alignment with our true selves.
Without this it really is just paint and paper.

The Q is because this huge resource is accessed by learning how to ask the right questions of ourselves that open doors to understanding:
- How to create and keep confidence in our work.
- How to work creatively with our self criticism and self belief.
- How to find and follow aligned inspiration.

And much, much more. And the beautiful part? As we paint, we create and the right questions naturally arise.
It’s never just paint and paper.

LLANGRANNOG

I've been painting Llangrannog for over two decades now, and the place still enchants and fascinates me. There's so much natural beauty, whatever the season. Wildlife, coastal flora, spectacular scenery, and the freshness of the wild Atlantic ocean cast a spell that's hard to ignore.

This year, 2025, I'm drawn more than ever back to this beautiful place and have already started work on a new series of paintings celebrating this historic Ceredigion coastal village.

Back in the studio now after I was drawn coastward for a few days….. to familiar places and many happy memories. Sandy toes, a sketchbook, and a soul full of seashore - my happy place, which I look forward to sharing with you in these paintings.

Currently, there are eight in progress. You can follow their development on this dedicated web page https://www.helenelliott.net/about-4

Creativity is necessary because it’s a release valve for the soul. It allows us to process the world, make sense of emotions, and connect with something bigger than our day-to-day concerns.

Even if it doesn’t produce anything "useful" in a conventional sense, it nurtures inner balance, which then ripples outward into everything else — relationships, decisions, energy, even business.

It’s like dreaming while awake — seemingly aimless but essential for integration and evolution. Without creativity, we risk becoming too utilitarian, too boxed in by logic or routine.

Creativity isn’t just play. It’s alignment. A way of coming back to our own rhythm and truth.

It’s not just about the paint, (although that is a wonderful metaphor for how we create our life). It’s about the person we’re becoming when we’re painting.

if you’d like to join me for more creating art and creating life, I’ve got a three day in person workshop coming up at the end of the month here in West Wales. Details on my website or you’re welcome to message me.
