A let-loose drawing session for all!
Break free from constraints or self judgement!
(They restrict one’s drawing abilities.)
Let go and flow your intrinsic self expression.
A useful skill in any field - since cave painting!
Start with the freeing principle: if you can hold some form of mark-making implement, you CAN draw!
Includes backwards/upside down/mud/stick/foot/food and blind image creation…

Sophie says:
“FAST ART is a workshop designed to ruffle your creative thinking feathers into an efficient, swift, collaborative and imaginative mindset. Sticking to an approximate 5 hour schedule, we will do some major idea generation, problem solving with a small budget, hand-make our idea using our small budget, exhibit what we have made and also hit the streets of Brighton to sell our art too. The Fast Art workshop will guide you through one whole cycle of the art world economy in a fun and simplistic way.”
Please bring :
- £1 each to put towards our budget
- A packed lunch and snacks
- if you like, also some arty resources such as paper and paint
Trainee oracle Surya Rose will answer your questions.
Griefwalker is a National Film Board of Canada feature documentary film, directed by Tim Wilson. It is a lyrical, poetic portrait of Stephen Jenkinson’s work with dying people. Filmed over a twelve year period, Griefwalker shows Jenkinson in teaching sessions with doctors and nurses, in counselling sessions with dying people and their families, and in meditative and often frank exchanges with the film’s director while paddling a birch bark canoe about the origins and consequences of his ideas for how we live and die.
**Stephen is also running a workshop outside the school in September. You can read about that and sign up here.
In June 2008, four people left Amsterdam in an old army truck bound for Mongolia to find the Nomads and share in their ancient way of life.
Three more weeks. We had a shuffle round of some of the classes. We cut some, made a few longer and rethought a few. (If there’s something missing that you were looking forward to, call the director). And we’ve put in a few repeats (by request).
And to make it as easy as possible to get in and try something out:
- Your first class is free.
- It’s only £25 for everything in the timetable (if you sign up using this link).
And, there are five more slots for additional classes in the next two weeks and lots of slots in the last week. If you’d like to teach something and haven’t said so yet, then say so.

In this practical class Kat Soutar will break down your preconceived ideas about what makes a great painting.
Paint is a beautiful and tactile medium, which we will explore in a number of ways. In this class we will work through traditional painting ideas and gradually work towards other methods and ideas, resulting in a beautiful sense of creative freedom and satisfaction with what you’ve made.
Class requirements: £2 to cover materials. Please give this to Kat when you get to school.
