What you'll do
Discover your creativity in this painting to music session in London, a gentle activity designed to help you return to presence and connect through brush strokes, rhythm, and creative flow. No art experience is needed for this workshop, suitable for all level, it's a lovely tool to enhance your wellbeing. We’ll be using acrylic paint on square canvas, with curated jazz music and guidance, and yes, you’ll be able to take your artwork home with you :)If you often tell yourself, "I can’t even draw a straight line, " this is the perfect space for you! This class isn't about achieving neat or 'correct' brush strokes. Instead, you'll learn how to simply be in the present – understanding that wiggly and expressive is more than welcome!You’ll explore the meditative and expressive power of painting as a unique activity. Learn how to focus on each stroke, the motion of your hand, and the texture of your feelings as they begin to take form on the canvas, resulting in a painting you’ll take home – a personal artifact of the present moment as a form of art journaling.Any concerns about perfectionism or fear of mistakes can be gently addressed. In this supportive environment, you’ll be encouraged to celebrate any 'happy mistakes' (think Bob Ross vibes!) and will have the opportunity to reflect through journaling on the little lessons in self-growth that each stroke can reveal.You will learn how to embrace the entire painting process without pressure. This class offers an uplifting experience, helping you connect with your inner self through the simple act of painting.This class is great for individuals and couples as well as for a date idea, birthday, or hen do.

Your teacher
I am Gabriela “Ina Leah” Fernandez, a transdisciplinary Indonesian artist, as well as an advocate for autism & ADHD awareness. With 11 years of experience, I recently graduated from the Royal College of Art (MFA Arts and Humanities), where I explored the intersection of art and wellbeing after getting a BA in Psychology. I founded Akarupa, an art-for-wellbeing platform promoting self-expression, community building, and intergenerational collaboration.Since 2013, I’ve performed across 8 cities in Indonesia at events like Ngayogjazz Festival, Prambanan Jazz Festival, and the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival. I performed for Bakti Budaya Djarum Foundation, which led to a collaboration with film director Garin Nugroho. In the UK, I’ve participated in events like St. George’s Art Festival, Wandsworth Art Fringe, and Colchester’s Festival of Rice & Spice.My accolades include winning the GoAhead Challenge (2018), National Nomination for Young Female Singer (2021), and an AMI Awards nomination for Best Music Production (2022). In 2024, I was shortlisted for the New Blood Art Emerging Artist Award Prize.From 2019 to 2023, I researched my Lamaholot Tribe’s heritage in East Nusa Tenggara, exploring how indigenous participatory dances and songs promote wellbeing. This inspired Sounds From Lamaholot, a therapeutic art method showcased at Biennale Yogyakarta 2022.As a neurodivergent artist, I advocate for autism and ADHD awareness through social media, podcasts, and speaking engagements at institutions like the University of Bath and Ohio University. My visual art focuses on raising awareness about autistic experiences and promoting healing. A recipient of a fully funded scholarship from the Indonesia Endowment Fund for Education, I am now based in London, committed to creating art that fosters wellbeing and social impact. This includes being Music Leader Cohort at Wigmore Hall and workshop leader at “From Stimming to Dance” for autistic children.
