holly woodnutt

We are very excited to be offering you this workshop, a collective exploration into our womb consciousness through meditation and painting. You can expect an incredibly nurturing, held, loved and supported circle of sisterhood. We will have beautiful and powerful meditations guided by the wonderful Georgie Catling, Author, Creatrix and Womb Alchemist and the creator of the Yoni Oracle cards @yonioracle www.yonioraclecards.com Together we will create a painting from our womb consciousness on a huge piece of canvas on the floor, guided by Holly Woodnutt a visionary womb artist, transpersonal womb art therapist and menstruality mentor @sineadholly_wombportalstudio www.sineadhollywoodnutt.com You do not need any painting experience whatsoever, as you shall be guided throughout the process. It is truly incredible what happens when we paint this way! Carl Jung coined the phrase 'collective unconsciousness' to describe how we all connect to each other in many ways when we are in the same room. Inspired by this, and the results from womb painting and womb work, Holly has coined the phrase 'collective womb unconsciousness' to describe when we sit together how our wombs start to communicate. This is what we shall witness together when we paint and it is incredibly powerful in so many ways. At the end of the day the womb painting will be cut up and you shall all get a piece to take home with you, forever bonded and connected through the magnificence of our wombs.

ridge pottery

This site deals mostly with the teaching side of our endeavours and with the production of our pots I established Ridge Pottery in Queen Camel, Somerset, in 1977, with the aim firstly of making beautiful and useful pots of all kinds and sizes and secondly to continue with the international summer school I had started in Devon. In partnership with Jennie and with the help of many assistants, this quickly became a reality. From the ground up! We dig our own clay; our glazes are made from local materials, and we wood-fire our finished stoneware pottery. We are devoted to making good, useable pots, delighting in the timeless skill of working in clay and promoting the fulfilling life of creating with hand, eye and the earth’s materials.

for every cloud

For Every Cloud was established by Donna Vale in 2013, a creative venue based in Langport, a small town in the heart of the Somerset levels. Having graduated with a first class honors degree in art and textiles I wanted to create a space where people can learn, have fun, relax and make friends, this is really important but I also wanted an environment where visitors wouldn’t feel overwhelmed. My business mission statement ‘where friendship and creativity meet’ sums up the ethos of what we do at For Every Cloud. A shop and gallery stocking local art and craft features alongside my own. Workshops are held in the gallery space and studio, which is also used to teach screen printing. Both spaces can be hired by tutors and artists alike utilising their skills to teach popular classes such as needle felting. The workshop list is varied and attracts people from as far as London, France and Denmark who come with friends and family to stay in this beautiful part of the country, booking days to make and take… and of course have tea and cake. From experimental textiles to bookbinding, etching with Perspex to calligraphy, there is something here for everyone. I work alongside local B&B’s and cafes to provide an all round experience, offering bespoke events for hen parties, corporate functions and children’s birthdays and more recently, a summer school for adults. As well as workshops I create bespoke calligraphy and stationery for weddings, sublimation printing for personalised gifts. A signmaking service is also available for all your business and personal needs. Whether you need a new shop front or graphics for your vehicle, we are happy to help with the design and installation.
