Bristol Art For All

bristol art for all

Bristol

My name is Amy Powell and I am a catalyst for reconnecting people with their innate creativity. At Bristol Art For All we facilitate friendly, inclusive learning environments where people can explore their creativity. We started in 2015 running an open access drop in face-to-face community art class in Easton in Bristol. From December 2019 to March 2020 sessions moved to Hamilton House in Stokes Croft Bristol and since April 2020 have been online. Online sessions are run in partnership with local charities as well as sessions open to all adults. Current partners include Age UK and St Mungo’s Recovery College. All online sessions are around a theme selected by the participants, who use the art materials and skills they already have to devise their own projects. Support is on hand to give input on what is made. The sessions act as an online art studio with time for making and opportunities to share and get feedback on artwork. Participants are seen as artists first with the acceptance that we are all on our own life journeys. The focus is on creating learning environments where people enjoy the process of making. With this strong foundation people can have the confidence and resilience to develop further skills. This website gives a taste of the work made over the course of Bristol Art For All. Myself and Rosa Hewitt began Bristol Art For All in 2015. In 2017 Rosa went to the University of Hertfordshire to study Art Therapy. She now works in London as an art therapist with children. I continued with the project in Bristol with the support of volunteers, building my knowledge, experience and skills by studying courses in teaching, facilitation, communication and social enterprise. As well as volunteering with Arts and Health organisations including Studio Upstairs, Bristol Art on Prescription, Workers Education Association (WEA), Milestones Expressions programme and St Mungos Recovery College where I currently run their online art class. I love being a catalyst for people to reconnect with their creativity. It is a great privilege to have worked with over 200 people across Bristol and beyond. Some have attended for years others for one session but all have been welcome and encouraged in their art making. I am currently in the process of making Bristol Art For All into an online art school to reach people who would otherwise struggle to access mainstream arts education. I am interested to connect with organisations, which work with clients who would benefit from exploring and developing their creativity with the support of being in a group.

I am an artist, author, art teacher, professional illustrator and creator of two published books: Soul Color, a ten week course on watercolour painting to cultivate creativity and mindfulness [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Soul-Color-Watercolor-Mindfulness-Creativity/dp/1912634260], and Earth Color, an eight week art course for nature connection. [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Earth-Color-Course-Nature-Connection-Wellness/dp/1912634481/ref=pd_lpo_3?pd_rd_i=1912634481&psc=1] Both are published by Liminal 11 [https://liminal11.com/] in the UK and Sterling/Union Square & Co. [https://www.unionsquareandco.com/9781912634484/earth-color-by-emma-burleigh/] in the USA & Canada.  I hold regular courses and workshops in the Bristol and Stroud areas, which encourage expressive, experimental, meditative, imaginative and insightful approaches to making art. They are suitable for experienced artists and complete beginners alike. They tend to be in the mediums of watercolour painting, mixed media, art journaling, or illustrated poetry, comics & graphic narratives. I am a regular tutor at the Royal West Academy, Bristol, and I'm also available for one to one tutoring, and group private workshops. To see a full list of classes I am currently teaching visit my website at https://www.emmaburleigh.com/teachingworkshops [https://www.emmaburleigh.com/teachingworkshops] I have a PGCE in Art from Oxford Brookes University and twenty years experience teaching Art at GCSE, A level and Key Stage Three. For several years I was the Head of Art at Didcot Girls' School, as well as the Fine Art course Leader for A level at Didcot Sixth Forms in Oxfordshire. I offer A level and GCSE tutoring and have an up to date DBS certificate. I enjoy helping people to develop their drawing and painting skills, and to find their voice. If you're scared to pick up a pencil or paintbrush but have always longed to, my special interest is in helping you to feel the fear and do it anyway!   For more information on my current classes and to get a sense of bespoke workshops I could offer you, visit https://www.emmaburleigh.com/teachingworkshops [https://www.emmaburleigh.com/teachingworkshops]
