About me
My name is Emma Ward
I've been an Art Lover all my life, and a professional Artist for over 15 years. My family and I are dedicated to living a life that nourishes our inner passions, and for me that means living a life based around creativity in all its forms. I am a true Cancerian - I love nourishing my painting practice, my family, my home & my garden.
​
I am deeply passionate about the positive impacts that creativity can have on ones health and well-being, whether that's hanging paintings above your lounge, or dabbling in watercolours - Art will make a difference.
​
Come and visit me in the Art studio, and I'll offer you the space & encouragement to let your 'artistic side' bloom.
Art Class Information
Studio sessions are designed to attend as a 'one off' or as a regular practise. In the sessions, you will learn about the principles of Art making; mark making, tone & colour, form, composition and personal expression! I will encourage you to develop your OWN personal style, and inspire you to include creativity into your lifestyle. Rather than calling this a 'class' I prefer the term 'session' as the aim is to gather like minded Art-lovers to make Art together, in the ambience of a dedicated creative space. Sessions available for Adults on Friday evenings and Saturdays, and a children's Saturday session as well.
​
Art Materials that are used in the sessions are based around an elemental practise:
Water & Water mediums feature heavily in my Art studio - I’m in love with Watercolours and Acrylics.
Fire is represented with my love of charcoal drawing.
Earth is represented by salts, natural pigments, pastels and chalks that I like to use in mixed media Art.
and finally
Air…. when I relax in my creative space I find that my breathing slows down. My shoulders relax and I find my flow. I am dedicated to helping you find YOUR creative flow too!
Art is elemental, creativity is part of our DNA. It's never too early, or too late to ignite your creative passion.
