Art Journaling & Meditation Retreat

Art Journaling & Meditation Retreat

Wednesday 1 July 2026 | 9:30am – 3:30pm

Immerse yourself in a day of creativity, mindfulness, and self-discovery through the inspiring practice of art journaling.

This nurturing workshop invites you to slow down, quieten the mind, and reconnect with your inner creative voice through guided meditation and expressive art-making. Whether you are an experienced artist or complete beginner, this enriching experience offers a welcoming space to explore, reflect, and create.

Throughout the day, you will be introduced to the foundations of art journaling using a diverse range of mixed-media techniques, including:

• Acrylic painting
• Collage
• Paint pens and markers
• Printmaking techniques
• Stencilling
• Experimental mark-making
• Texture-building processes

Participants will explore the creative elements of colour, line, pattern, texture, and composition while developing pages that reflect personal thoughts, inspirations, and artistic expression.

Guided by artist and educator Anna Maria, you will learn how to establish a sustainable creative practice that can be enjoyed in small pockets of time long after the workshop concludes. As part of the experience, you will also create your own handmade art journal using quality watercolour paper, providing the perfect foundation for your ongoing artistic journey.

This workshop is designed to nourish both creativity and wellbeing, offering an opportunity to relax, recharge, and reconnect with yourself in a supportive and inspiring environment.

No prior art experience is necessary—just a willingness to explore, create, and be present.
