About this event

Build confidence in your art practice

If you’re feeling creatively stuck, or ready to explore your practice more deeply, this three-day course offers the space to reconnect with your ideas, build confidence, and rediscover your artistic voice.

This inspiring weekend provides a supportive environment to explore your personal approach to making art through structured yet playful creative exercises. With individual mentoring from professional artists Ilker Cinarel and Kerry Harding, you’ll be guided in developing work in a direction that feels true to you. Designed to quiet self-doubt and spark new ideas, the course encourages curiosity, experimentation, and confidence across a range of materials.

The weekend begins with Ilker leading a day of guided exploration, using automatic drawing and collage to unlock creative thinking and generate starting points for further development. On Saturday morning, Kerry introduces monoprinting as a versatile and exciting way to evolve your ideas. You’ll also take part in one-to-one tutorials with both artists, offering valuable time to reflect on your work, gain insight from two perspectives, and plan your next steps with clarity and confidence.

Aimed at those looking to develop their art practice.
