Whilst the venue had a relaxing vibe there was limited room around the table to paint comfortably. Winnifred was very helpful and encouraging. Facilities to wash brushes and change water would have been helpful. The manager was unaware of the session taking place in the cafe. I met some lovely people and hope to attend more workshops

The event was not organised on arrival as the host did not know of our attendance. The host was frustrated and unprepared. This was quickly resolved and the art class with Otowa winifred continued . It was an interesting art class and relaxing.

Kinga's attention to detail in presenting this event helped set a relaxing creative environment. I have always been daunted by the detail in mandalas but surprised myself in managing to make 2. Thank you Kinga.

ARTISTS
Razieh Mirzaee
My name is Razieh Mirzaee, an Afghan woman artist whose journey from Iran to Northern Ireland has been marked by resilience, courage, and a deep love for nature and painting. After years of hardship, I found a safe space in Antrim where I could freely express myself through art. Inspired by the natural world and animal portraiture, my work seeks to capture the silent stories, strength, and spirit of animals 2014 a reflection of the healing power nature has offered me throughout my life.

Through my painting workshops, I hope to share this sense of peace and connection with others. I believe that art can be a path to inner calm and shared joy 2014 a gentle space where we can come together, create, and heal.

For years, a chronic mental health condition has negatively affected my interest in creating art. I have since embraced creating art digitally. I found it provides more spontaneity, and is less cumbersome psychologically.The staff at this branch were welcoming and friendly towards me, as I spent a lot of time there enjoying coffee and people-watching. I decided to express my graduate in visual form. Sadly, now, this branch no longer exists, which makes me even more thankful that I made the e

Title or Location: Poppies
I approach my art, by not limiting myself to any one style or medium. It is important to experiment and find what works best for me, both technically and creatively. I like to push my boundaries and experiment with varying styles and mediums. i got great enjoyment painting these poppies as it was something new for me. I rarely have used Gouche paint and painting flowers is was a new subject matter. I enjoyed it so much that I created a series of flower paintings.

Title or Location: Multnomah Falls
This is a 5x10 value practice using Multnomah Falls as subject. This is also the first time ever painting this iconic beauty. One can have a great subject, vibrant colors, and lots of details, but without proper values it's flat and un realistic if that's what your seeking.
