I almost forgot!
The original version of this email forgot to mention the awesome merch we have.
When I saw the art by
I immediately wanted my own Neuro Nest shirt and mug. Neurokind doesn’t make any profit on these, but your purchase supports a mom and pop shop run by neurodivergent creatives. (They also do great custom work if you need your own merch!)

This simple workshop will teach you to make a circular weaving. Submit your weaving to a collaborative work that represents neurodiversity. My vision involves dozens and dozens of weavings and I’d love to include YOURS.

Write Your Heart Out

A deep dive into writing strands of your life for a memory box, diary, gifts or your blog/ newsletter.
I’ve always been a writer. I wrote a tonne when I was small and then told myself I wasn’t good enough and stopped.
I picked it up again in 2017 and have written memory journals for my kids, blogs, newsletters and books. My newsletters are read by over 12,000 people and the book I realised last year became an Amazon best seller in its first week.
I’m delighted to share some gentle, creative exercises to get you thinking about how you might write some of your life onto the page.
No experience necessary. Join me with your favourite journal and let’s write some dreams onto the page.

Following the Water: A Journey in Intuitive Painting
Hosted by
Discover the meditative and transformative process of intuitive watercolor painting in this immersive workshop. Together, we’ll explore how to let go of control and follow the natural flow of water and pigment to create expressive, abstract art.
Whether your inspiration comes from nature, personal stories, or the simple beauty of color and movement, this journey invites you to trust your instincts and embrace the unexpected.
This workshop is open to both experienced artists and curious beginners. Using approachable techniques like wet-on-wet painting and layering, you’ll learn how to co-create with water and gravity to guide your process. By the end, you’ll have a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects your creative voice and a renewed connection to your artistic intuition.
Thanks to everyone who has supported this project.
Cheers,
P.S. I’m your curator
