  • "The Ocean Abstracts workshop was truly a balm to the soul! Natalie was the perfect balance of friendly, encouraging, and engaging. It has left a feeling of joy that is still with me several days later. Hearing her talk about her inspiration for her artwork and her love of the ocean made the artwork feel even more personal. Thank you Natalie, I hope to return for another workshop soon!"

    —Sarah. Ocean Abstracts workshop at Flourish

  • "This art session was exactly what I needed. So relaxing, with a lovely group of people and professional guidance throughout. Natalie was brilliant at making everyone feel capable, even total beginners like me. I left feeling inspired and proud of my achievement. Highly recommend! "

    —Laura. Ocean Abstracts workshop at Flourish.

  • " 'Spending three hours with Natalie on Sunday morning was absolutely fantastic and such a great way to connect with others, learn a new creative skill (am definitely buying texture paint for more fun at home!) and relax doing a mindful activity. The calming shades of blue, the tea, and most importantly, the expert guidance and encouragement from Natalie made it a unique and enjoyable experience. I can’t wait for the next one!’

    • Abi. Ocean Abstract workshop at Flourish

  • "I had such a lovely evening at Natalie’s ocean-themed abstract paint night. I’d never done anything like that before, but she struck the perfect balance between professional and friendly. She explained everything clearly, created such a relaxed atmosphere and made it feel completely pressure-free. I’d absolutely do it again”

    -Paula. Private group workshop

  • “It was such a fun evening. I wouldn’t say I’m someone who likes ‘doing art’ or being creative but I really enjoyed it and had such a buzz from learning something new and doing a reasonable job of it too! It was so fab.”

    -Katie. Private group workshop

  • "Absolutely loved last night's workshop. Thanks so much"

    -Helena. Private group workshop

  • I really loved this workshop. It was deeply satisfying to finish the evening with a work of art, which is now on my wall! Having this time to experiment and play with colour and texture felt very joyful and mindful. The atmosphere was relaxed and happy and it was great to share this experience and enjoy watching everyone learn and create together. many thanks for a wonderful evening.

  • I absolutely loved Natalie’s ocean-inspired acrylic art workshop! In just two hours, we learned so many different techniques for creating abstract art using texture, layering and colour. My favourite part was learning how to create mermaid scales using layers of texture and colour. I was genuinely amazed at how much my painting — and my confidence — improved in such a short space of time. The setting made the whole experience even more special, overlooking the beautiful estuary in Laugharne, Carmarthenshire, with such a lovely group of people to share the workshop with. And a brilliant bonus was hearing Natalie’s stories about marine mammals and her ocean adventures while we painted. Her passion for the ocean really comes through in both her artwork and the workshop. Such a relaxing, creative and inspiring couple of hours. I’d absolutely recommend it and would definitely do another workshop!
