This workshop will provide an opportunity to explore portrait painting in an expressive way using oil paint. We will work on canvases providing the scope for experimental mark making.

All abilities welcome!

‘Whose Story Is It Anyway?’ – How to work with Story Therapeutically – CPD
With Asta Jakobsdottir
Monday 27 – Wednesday 29 July 2020, 10am-4pm
Cost: £170.00
We all know a story. We ourselves are all bundles of stories whether it be the stories of our innermost experiences, our parents, land, folklore or other. During this course we explore the magic and revelations of stories in images. These images may lead to other stories being born and told. This may allow therapeutic access to another more subconscious level of understanding stories, even the ones we already know. This course is for therapists and other professionals working with clients.
Asta Jakbosdottir is a graduate of Tobias School of Art and Therapy, arts counsellor, massage therapist and tutor.
