Introduction to Creative Crafts for Wellbeing
On this course you will be able to develop your creative skills by working on a project of your choice with the help and support of the tutor. This could be anything from still life drawing and painting, sketching, perspective drawing, textiles, crochet, sewing machine techniques, card making, water colours and photography.

What you will learn
On this course, we use natural materials from our surroundings, such as branches, flowers, leaves, sand, soil, and stone. This allows us to express a sense of harmony within the environment and also creates a space in which we must fall subject to the natural cycles of the environment, whether that be changes in weather, flowering or erosion. We are inspired by nature or use it as a raw material, transmitting its beauty and encouraging us to take care of it.
You will be able to develop knowledge, understanding and skills whilst boosting your confidence and improving your wellbeing.
The tutor will give you guidance to achieve your goals and you can adapt them to make your own creations.
