box-sizing: border-box;">More and more people&rsquo;s lives are being blighted by anxiety, causing distress to all involved. The anxiety may have initially been focused on realistic, understandable concerns &ndash; such as financial difficulties, health, job insecurity or unemployment, relationship problems (particularly complex in blended families) or fears about the future in an increasingly uncertain world &ndash; but has spiralled out of control.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Or it may have no clear cause and manifests as an ever-present feeling of being &lsquo;wired&rsquo;, tense or vulnerable, very often accompanied by out-of-control thoughts. The person may be hypervigilant, unable to relax and highly miserable. Left unaddressed, chronic anxiety can also badly affect sleep and physical, as well as mental, health.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The good news is there&rsquo;s much that we can do to reduce this suffering.

font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">It concentrates on generalised anxiety (including generalised anxiety disorder &ndash; GAD), social anxiety and panic attacks, but also addresses how to handle anxiety that is a feature of conditions such as autistic spectrum disorder, ADHD and bipolar and borderline personality disorder.</p></section><section style="color: rgb(58, 68, 74);

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Let local artist Mark Kirkham take you on a personalised sketching journey around some of his favourite local spots while teaching you how to capture the unique features of Edinburgh.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><span id="isPasted" style="color: rgb(65, 65, 65); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="color: rgb(65, 65, 65);">Mark, known locally as the Edinburgh Sketcher, has been drawing since before he can remember. After years spent as a graphic designer working with many agencies and publications he has reverted to his childhood - filling sketchbooks with the everyday sights that life in Scotland&rsquo;s capital city provides. Mark enjoys sharing his hidden views of the city and reminding residents and visitors of the beauty in the everyday.</span></p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Your one-to-one sketching tour will begin at The Arienas Collective, or a mutually agreed location, and can be designed around your individual preferences. </p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The price includes all materials and an Edinburgh Sketcher tote bag to take away with you, plus welcome refreshments, including a selection Shibui teas, real coffee bags, and sweet and savoury snacks.</p>

Let local artist Mark Kirkham take you on a personalised sketching journey around some of his favourite local spots while teaching you how to capture the unique features of Edinburgh.
Mark, known locally as the Edinburgh Sketcher, has been drawing since before he can remember. After years spent as a graphic designer working with many agencies and publications he has reverted to his childhood - filling sketchbooks with the everyday sights that life in Scotland’s capital city provides. Mark enjoys sharing his hidden views of the city and reminding residents and visitors of the beauty in the everyday.
Your one-to-one sketching tour will begin at The Arienas Collective, or a mutually agreed location, and can be designed around your individual preferences. 
The price includes all materials and an Edinburgh Sketcher tote bag to take away with you, plus welcome refreshments, including a selection Shibui teas, real coffee bags, and sweet and savoury snacks.
To check availability, use the 'Request a date' button to share your preferred date(s). We will then contact Mark to see if he's available. No money will be taken until your workshop date is confirmed.
A note about the Scottish weather

We're used to a bit of wind and rain in Edinburgh, so please do check the forecast before you leave and dress appropriately. In the event of extreme weather conditions which require us to cancel the sketching tour, we will contact you to arrange an alternative date. If you are visiting Edinburgh and not able to attend at another time, please let us know and we will issue a full refund (less any booking charges made by financial partners). 
More information 
The Arienas Collective workshops, courses and events are run from a supportive and welcoming home-based environment within a Georgian mews home in Edinburgh’s City Centre New Town. We invite you to join us, leave any day-to-day worries behind, and immerse yourself in being creative.
Spaces on our workshops and courses are limited so that our creative team of artists and makers can offer you the hands-on help and support you need to make the most of your time with us. 
All the equipment and materials you will need are included in the price, unless stated otherwise, plus light refreshments (a selection of Shibui teas, coffee, hot chocolate, and sweet or savoury snacks). On full day workshops you are welcome to bring your own lunch to eat inside or out; or there are a wide range of independent sit-in or takeaway delis, cafés, and restaurants, plus supermarkets, within a 5-10 minute walk.
PLEASE NOTE: Our workshop space is on the first-floor of a Georgian mews building and unfortunately we do not have lift access. The workshop space is in our home which is not nut free. Please let us know of any skin or food allergies before booking.
Private workshop bookings
Most of our workshops are also available to book for small private get-togethers; themed wedding and birthday celebrations; corporate team building and well-being purposes; and as in-store retail events. For larger groups, many of our workshops can be brought to a location of your choice. Please email Lynn or phone 07732 901150 for more information.
