We have 3 very skilled artist helping with this workshop: Jessica, Mary and Andee
Jessica Bailey is a concept artist who studied jewellery design at RCA but has been learning and developing skills such as painting, photography, film and editing over the last 18 years.
Mary , started jewellery making about 20 years ago after visiting a craft fair where one of the stalls sold lots of amazing semi precious stones. After a break of 10 years, she visited the Jewellery Class at the Art Place and Jess reignited my love for making jewellery. Three years on she is still at the Art Place, enjoying every minute.
How you can use beading jewellery as a mindfulness exercise:
"The act of rolling the beads between your fingers is a physical reminder of the intention you set at the outset, and prompts you to return to your breathing and refocus your attention when your mind wanders—and it will wander. Think of your beads as a tool that can help guide you into a deeper meditation practice"
All materials are provided ad refreshments available.
