Our workshops have served as intense social learning sessions and therapeutic retreats to adults, and our children’s workshops have helped children express themselves and make large strides in their artistic endeavours. As reflected in our principles, all our sessions are inclusive of people with special education needs (SEN) and learning difficulties. We have helped children with SEN develop their confidence and become more involved in art. Our approach to teaching and learning is focused on using art to build a creative local community founded on principles of inclusivity. We provide a platform to showcase the work of our creatives via our Group Exhibitions - we also host and take part in national events such as The Big Draw and Lumiere London - the UK’s biggest light festival - and in local events like the Fabula Festival. We run pop-ups, co-operate with businesses alongside our workshops, and collaborate with non-profit organisations in addition to organising after school clubs with local schools. For more information on our past projects please do have a look at our News page! If you’re a business, charity, school or organisation and are interested in reaching out we are always open to collaborations! Please go to our Contact page and get in touch so we can send you a proposal package and plan a workshop for you (or your organisation)! Getting the community involved in art is always important - which is why we offer creatives the opportunity to run workshops. We welcome everyone that wants to volunteer their time and help others flourish; and as Eliyah once said, “the most expensive thing is time”.

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]
