We’re developing a range of online offerings to help you reconnect with your creativity, reset your nervous system and find joy in small, meaningful ways.

Coming soon:

Permission to Pause

Creative breaks that help you breathe again

Join the Art Dojo mailing list to be the first to know when enrolment opens:

Our first 4-week online course is designed especially for busy, burnt-out mums who feel like they can never get time for themselves - who crave peace amongst the daily chaos, a peace you don’t think is possible.

What you’ll learn

  • Simple, 5–15 minute art-based pauses to reconnect with yourself

  • How to reset your nervous system, and feel more present - for your family, and for you.

What's included

  • Short recorded lessons + live weekly art sessions via Zoom

  • Creative prompt workbook download

  • A flexible project to complete in your own style and time

  • Support from a private Facebook group.

It’s designed to fit into your busy life of school-run / work / appointments / sports/ meals / relationships, and whatever else you squeeze in.

This isn’t just another task that steals your time.

It’s your space. Your pause. Just for you.

No art skills are needed (stick figures welcome), and no fancy materials required. Just a willingness to show up for yourself in small, meaningful ways. You'll finish the course with a piece of art that reminds you:

“I gave myself permission to pause - and it felt good.”

Roses are red

Or any colour you want them to be!

Learn to paint, draw, and create without fear - by exploring watercolour, acrylics, pencils, and mixed media using a printable rose image as your starting point.

This course is about trying new things, stepping away from 'right and wrong', feeling the fear and making the mark anyway. Reclaim the joy of creative discovery.

Specific materials optional. No pressure. No perfection.

Just the courage to begin.
