OVERVIEW;

Join Issie (The Everyday Creative) at Claire’s House for a relaxed, informal Art Club designed for grown-ups who want to pause, play and reconnect with their creativity.

What to expect;

  • Gentle guided warm-ups to loosen up and quieten the inner critic.

  • Simple creative exercises using a mix of conventional and not-so-conventional(!) art materials.

  • Informal exploration responding to a seasonal still life — no pressure, no expectation for a finished-product.

  • Time to chat, drink tea, and enjoy biscuits in good company.

Why come?;

  • Challenge perfectionism and calm a busy mind.

  • Build creative confidence through playful practice.

  • Step away from screens and daily demands for some restorative breathing space.

  • All levels welcome — no experience necessary. My motto: you do not need to be good at art for art to be good for you.

Join us for a calm, informal evening of creative play designed to soothe the busy mind, challenge perfectionism, and gently build your creative confidence. Each session starts with short, guided warm-up exercises from Issie to help you loosen up, quieten inner chatter, and embrace playful experimentation with both conventional and unexpected art materials. After the warm-up, you’ll have time for relaxed exploration as you respond to a seasonal still life; plus time to chat, drink tea & eat biscuits!

This is not about producing a polished finished piece or following a strict lesson plan. It’s about the experience: stepping away from screens and daily demands to refill your creative cup and reconnect with curiosity.

No experience required—my motto: you don’t have to be good at art for art to be good for you!

- Book early to save your spot — spaces are limited & tend to go very quickly!

Please Note;

-Claire's House Cafe will not be open but Issie will be making cups of tea and providing biscuits! (included in the price of your ticket)

-This workshop is run at Claire’s House Pottery where there may be other clay workshops / pottery painting going on…adding to the creative buzz & atmosphere!

-Just bring yourself — materials are provided. Wear something you don’t mind potentially getting a little messy!

-18+ due to use of sharp tools

If you have any questions about the workshop please email Issie directly at; hello@issiefreeman.com

About Issie Freeman & The Everyday Creative;

Issie studied Fine Art at Bath Spa University, and has continued to make and create in a wide range of mediums ever since! Recognising the benefit creating and being creative has had in bringing her into the present moment (out of her busy mind) and regulating her nervous system; she is now passionate about about sharing this with others.

Issie loves supporting people to (re)engage with their creativity in a supportive and welcoming environment; through 1-1 coaching and creative workshops.

In 2019 The Everyday Creative was born, to facilitate a friendly, inspiring and relaxed environment, through creative workshops, exploring the benefits that creativity has on our well-being.

In May 2026 Issie started the Art Club which now runs on the 1st & 3rd Tuesday of every month. 

Issie believes wholeheartedly that you don’t have to be good at art for art to be good for you.

Issie is also a BWY trained yoga teacher and BYCA certified life & creativity coach.
