CANVAS OF BEING: Class 1 Understanding Art Therapy and Creating the First Canvas of Life.

Translated by GoogleSee original

From 5.96 £ /h

"My art therapy classes are a safe and welcoming space where you can explore your creativity and discover new forms of expression. I call them "Canvases of Being," and through various artistic techniques, such as painting, drawing, collage, and sculpture, I will invite you to immerse yourself in a journey of self-discovery and emotional healing.

In a relaxed, non-judgmental environment, I will guide you through channeling your emotions, thoughts, and life experiences into unique, personally meaningful works of art. Each session will be an opportunity to let your imagination flow, release tension, and discover new perspectives.

No prior art experience is required, as the main focus is on the creative process and authentic expression. We'll learn basic techniques together, but the most important aspect will be the inner journey we'll undertake through art. These sessions are ideal for those seeking a therapeutic and enriching way to manage stress, overcome emotional challenges, boost self-esteem, and discover new facets of themselves. They will be an oasis of tranquility and personal growth in a busy world.

I invite you to join this wonderful journey of healing and self-discovery through the transformative power of art. Prepare to be amazed by your own creations and to connect with your inner self in a profound and revealing way!

As a future participant in my work sessions, I'm sharing some additional information you should consider. Be sure to read it carefully and see if it resonates with you.

1) Willingness to explore and express yourself: Art therapy involves opening yourself up to new experiences and allowing emotions to flow through the creative process. I ask that you, as a participant, come with an open mind and no fear of doing all kinds of activities. You are a great artist, and I don't want any doubts about that. :D

2) Respect and confidentiality: Since we will be working on personal and emotional issues, it is important to establish an environment of mutual respect and confidentiality, and I hope you maintain the privacy of what is shared during the sessions and if you would like someone to accompany you, you can let me know before starting.

3) Commitment and Regular Attendance: Art therapy is a gradual process, so a commitment to regular session attendance is recommended for best results. Ideally, you should complete the initial eight sessions, which address the Self-Confidence aspect. But it will always be your decision that truly matters.

4) Basic materials: These sessions require basic items such as a sketchbook, pencils, scissors, crayons, watercolors, paintbrushes, clippings, skeins of colored thread, pastel crayons, and anything else you can think of that allows your creativity to flow.

5) Comfortable clothing: During the sessions, it is necessary to get rid of all stiffness, which is why it is ideal to wear the most comfortable clothing possible and that you do not run the risk of injury if any splashes arise.

Dare to be the best artist. The illustrator of your new way of seeing life.

About Me

"Permítanme presentarme de una manera un poco distinta a lo convencional. Soy un apasionado del arte en todas sus formas, un enamorado de los pinceles, las texturas y los colores vibrantes. Pero no solo eso, también soy un dedicado educador con más de 14 años de trayectoria formando mentes jóvenes.

Imaginen por un momento un lienzo en blanco, listo para ser llenado de vida. Así es como veo a cada uno de mis estudiantes, como obras maestras en potencia, esperando ser guiadas para descubrir su propio estilo y dejar fluir su creatividad sin límites.

Mi formación como orientador educativo me ha permitido comprender las complejidades de la mente humana y las diferentes formas en que aprendemos y nos expresamos. Pero ha sido mi pasión por el diseño gráfico, la tecnología educativa y, sobre todo, la expresión plástica, lo que realmente me ha dado las herramientas para ayudar a mis estudiantes a encontrar su voz artística única.

A lo largo de mi carrera, he tenido el privilegio de sumergirme en el fascinante mundo de la educación a distancia, explorando nuevas formas de llevar el conocimiento y la inspiración más allá de las aulas tradicionales. Pero siempre, sin importar el medio, mi objetivo ha sido el mismo: despertar la chispa creativa que todos llevamos dentro.

Así que les invito a unirse a mí en este apasionante viaje de autodescubrimiento a través del arte. Juntos, crearemos, experimentaremos y nos dejaremos llevar por la magia del proceso creativo. Porque, al fin y al cabo, ¿no es eso lo que realmente importa? Dejar una huella indeleble en el lienzo de la vida, una obra maestra hecha a mano, corazón y alma."

➤Choose the appropriate mediator to carry out quality work and help each other move forward/overcome certain mechanisms. An awareness necessary for change will then make it possible to be part of a new dynamic of life, to calm down and to use all its potential in the emotional/family/professional domains.

➤ Self-exploration in order to free oneself from emotion through speech and action / application, involves questioning oneself, analyzing, taking distance, and understanding the issues / points causing suffering or distress, before finally freeing oneself from them. This is intended to promote significant changes in cognitive, emotional or behavioral functioning.

➤This methodological approach, halfway between first practical behavioral coaching in an 'Anglo-Saxon' style and then psychoanalysis accompanied by a dedicated specialized psychoanalyst psycho-practitioner, is based precisely on precise questioning techniques, offering help in finding solutions, mastering new ways of envisaging/dealing with/perceiving difficulties, then implementing actions to be carried out. Combining the advantages of the two approaches and choosing the appropriate mediator to carry out quality work and help each other move forward/overcome certain mechanisms, will therefore induce the awareness necessary for this decided change, towards a new dynamic.

➤Objective? Understand the mechanisms of induced thought & emotion, linked to given everyday situations and which involve blockages. Then act concretely thanks to pragmatic techniques / methodological approaches from coaching, adapted to your situation to regain power over your life.

➤To lead this change & realize these aspirations, a cohort of concrete tools are at our disposal, but which involve deepening self-exploration. To question yourself, analyze, take some distance & understand the issues / problematic points, before finally freeing yourself from them through action.

➤Examples of themes/problems regularly dealt with & which are the subject of dedicated specialized support, adapted to your plan:
•Self-confidence, self-esteem/assertion, shyness, decision-making, personal development
•Management of emotions & suffering expressed in the form of anxieties, depressive disorders, embarrassments, addictions, relationship difficulties, phobia, stress, anger, anxiety, negative thoughts, panic, depression but also modification of behaviors harmful to good -being (post-traumatic stress, injuries, dependencies, addictions, etc.)
• Disorders of school/professional relations (tensions, (re)orientation, pressures & conflicts)
Program
and personal (family, romantic, friendly, emotional) & social (loneliness, communication difficulties generating pain/frustration)
• Problem of concentration, procrastination, organization, professional efficiency, time management
•Management of a past trauma of which you are the victim
(...)

➤At the start, it is always a question of knowing the triggers that led you to get support and knowing what you hope to accomplish with this follow-up.

➤With specific techniques that have proven themselves & adapted to your case and through a methodological approach and pragmatic tools, the purpose involves on the one hand an exploration of oneself through psychoanalytic tools and on the other hand concrete actions, as is the essence of coaching which bears fruit from the first sessions, by making you autonomous.

➤Influenced by cognitive & behavioral therapies, by Anglo-Saxon coaching instruments & the European methodology of applied psychoanalysis, the approach therefore aims to seek links between current difficulties and past experiences, including repressed and unresolved conflicts and to confront difficulties that may be partially related to inappropriate thoughts or behaviors learned/adopted often in spite of oneself.

➤And if cookie-cutter advice is precisely not offered, that you will never be judged or directed but heard and guided, in a process of permanent/interactive co-construction...it is precisely because it is important beforehand to analyze together, to become aware, to study jointly, to deepen, to decode your blockages & your initial problem to clarify your aspirations.

➤ So, how does a session take place? After an initial inventory, 'diagnostic'/exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, your problem, your blockages, your needs and objectives identified, it is a question of analyzing them together then changing perspective/approach, considering 'the impasse' differently, think differently about the difficulties, gradually get out of your comfort zone thanks to a series of pragmatic suggestions/reflections/actions to be applied, according to a line of work defined together, anchored in a relationship of benevolent trust.

➤ So, to develop coherent solutions in a living, authentic and assertive life, inspired by our intuition and elements of positive psychology, this individual support helps to:
- create a clear picture of your desired future and your individual journey
- activate your unique resources and strengths
- transform inner insecurity into confidence in order to focus your inner power
- broaden your scope
- use your gifts to co-create the transition to a vital and vital way of life in harmony with nature.

Concretely, a SESSION = REFLECTION + SOLUTIONS, with a readjusted strategy if necessary.

I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.

I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.

I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.

In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.

You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.

Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

► Learn to know your intimate and sexual desires, deepen them, assume them and perceive their meaning, while being aware of your own limits and those of your partner, understand your blockages in order to overcome them, take advantage of the approach socio-cognitive of sexual desire, better integrate the functioning of one's partner, integrate tools / techniques / methods / know-how / key phrases to take pleasure while leaving it to spontaneity & naturalness, improve the link between affectivity and sexual intimacy but also communication with your partner, play (...): these are examples of the objectives of these personalized sessions, in order to ultimately improve your intimate and sexual satisfaction, accompanied by a mediator specialized.

➤ Together, step by step, it's about getting to know each other better (through your past experience, what you like or appreciate the least about yourself / about the other), by analyzing situations in a thorough and pragmatic way. Indeed, this step is essential in order not to orient towards / "tackle" a pre-established model, but to adapt to each situation.

➤ In parallel, from the first session, once the key points are better understood / assimilated, and the objectives gradually defined, tackle, based on your daily life / your experience, the art of sexuality and its subtleties, while valuing the complexity of sexuality and not its complications.

► My mission: to help you understand, analyze, discover and discover yourself to better enjoy yourself, while gaining self-confidence & acting in order to no longer be limited by your beliefs.

➤ If the discretion and confidentiality of the coach are essential, it is therefore a question of offering a tailor-made program / training, following an initial 'diagnosis'.

► These sessions can, for example, deal with how to regain confidence and make you reconnect with a complex but not complicated, subtle but not tangled sexuality, in short fulfilled while understanding the key elements of your own psychology and that of your partner (... ). But also how to strengthen your sexual charisma to unlock your potential and take pleasure.

➤ Objective here again: to introduce concrete techniques / methods which make it possible to communicate easily, in a fluid, efficient and always natural way, while mastering situations.

➤ Non-verbal language, sexualization and avoidance of the friend zone (...): the objective being to demystify these themes in theory and in practice.

➤ Coaching is based on precise questioning techniques, helping the person being supported to find a solution to a problem. At the end of each session, the coachee will master new ways of thinking, actions to accomplish and will have better motivation. Depending on the clients' expectations, the coach can suggest other approaches.

➤ So what do the first individual coaching sessions look like? First, a first exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, the nature of the request and the context are evaluated, a 'diagnosis' is discussed, taking into account your difficulties, your needs, your objective.
Then, it is a question of developing a precise procedure and proposing lines of work. A relationship of trust is gradually established through a benevolent alchemy, where listening, empathy and the absence of judgment are central.

➤ Thus, after having carried out together an initial assessment of the situation, a kind of inventory, it is a question of determining the objectives to be reached, the feelings and the questions related to the situation as well as proposing actions to achieve your goal, resolve constraining situations that stand in your way, using tools that will be offered to you according to your situation to get out of your comfort zone and change your perspective.

➤ The guide then asks questions aimed at exploring solutions aimed at achieving the objective, through experiments and exercises. Through various tools (drawing, role playing, metaphor, visualization, etc.), this questioning helps to change perspective, get out of an impasse in order to explore various options that you might not have thought of. this way, based on tools and experience. For example, it could be a new way of thinking about difficulties or another approach to identifying and considering resolving conflicts or a progression in terms of personal development or in terms of a career focusing always on the development of personal resources and self-knowledge.
At the start of the next meeting, the coachee begins with a summary of the activations and the evolution of the state from the last meeting. This step makes it possible to have an evaluation of the positive points and those which are less so in order to readjust the set strategy.

➤ Concretely, ONE SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the next session in order to overcome blockages or improve self-knowledge.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

I am an artist and philosopher from Amsterdam currently living in Antwerp. I studied in London where I acquired a BA from Art Academy London and a BA in philosophy from St Mary's University London.

Artistic development starts by identifying your artistic interest. As artists, we don’t always know why we draw and paint the things that we do. Yet they are not random. What captivates us or draws us towards certain artworks? This might be the tonal way in which light reflects, structural forms or mathematical division. The point being, is that we all have such aesthetic interests and step 1 is finding out what interests you!

Step 2 is helping you express your interests through painting techniques, styles and materiality. But it all starts with you. What do you want to say? And how? I will help you do this through discussion, looking at your previous work (if you have any), introducing you to a LARGE variety of artists, potentially copying their styles. I adjust my classes according to your needs.

The goal is simple: to come to understand your artistic interest, help you find techniques to express them and develop your artistic language.

(Please note that just because you have found an artistic interest and a way to express it, it does not mean that you must do only one thing for the rest of your life. It is the downfall of creativity to repeat and paint the same way over and over again. Instead, allow your interests to drive your creativity. Let it be the starting point, venture out and discover it from various angles and ways of expressing it. But also be mindful that as we grow our interests can change and as they change, we must remain honest and respond accordingly such that our artistic language can also grow.)

Have questions? Don’t hesitate to message me! I can tailor a class to your needs :)

I teach digital painting with a focus on clarity, structure, and outcome. You’ll learn how to control digital brushes, build convincing lighting, use color intentionally, and create textures that add depth. We’ll move from the basics of composition to the challenges of designing characters, surreal environments, and expressive scenes.

By the end, you’ll produce portfolio-ready artworks and understand a professional workflow from sketch to finish. Each session combines hands-on exercises with discussion of artistic choices, so you strengthen both technical skill and creative judgment.

This course is for beginners and intermediate artists who want to go beyond tutorials and actually build a body of polished, original work.

I aim to offer a safe space for people who want to learn English, but on a slightly deeper level. My passion is psychology, human behaviour, and recently Geo Politics.

I have many students who are learning in a very standard way, however, I want to offer a slightly more in depth English class, almost like therapy but in English. Although I am not a trained therapist, my students always feel very drawn to me.

I have had 9 years of intense therapy myself and a troubled childhood, so my aim is not to advise, but to help by listening. Having a conversation, around more perhaps, intimate or troubling topics.

In my classes, I work with mindfulness, presence, energetic expansion, and ancestry as foundational elements of the creative process. Through embodied practices, I guide students in developing self-awareness, a deeper connection with themselves, and a conscious interaction with space. This work can be directed both toward the construction of truthful, grounded characters and toward more abstract explorations, engaging the interior dimensions of each individual and their unique expressive potential.
I am a Brazilian actress and educator based in Glasgow, with over 13 years of experience in theatre and butoh. With a background in Dramatic Arts, Psychoanalysis, and Literature, my work is grounded in ongoing field research and embodied practice, bringing together lived experience and teaching. I have been teaching since 2012 and successfully transitioned to online instruction in 2019, building a loyal and engaged community of students in Brazil. I am now excited to expand my work and share this practice with students worldwide.
As a member of the Brazilian theatre group Coletivo MÓ, I specialize in physical theatre techniques inspired by masters such as Luís Otávio Burnier, Jerzy Grotowski, Eugenio Barba, Kazuo Ohno, Tatsumi Hijikata, and Tadashi Endo. My practice also incorporates elements of Butoh dance and clow, creating a rich, multidimensional approach to performance, creativity, and self-expression.
