    Indian Butterflies

    Indian Butterflies

    Laure recently held an exhibition of her paintings to help fund a trip to India and headed off to Bodhgaya with a suitcase full of art materials. Having studied art therapy and witnessed the healing effect of art on many people's lives, including her own, she wanted to reach out to the children of Tara Children's Project who have lost both their parents to HIV/Aids. Jung used Mandalas in psychotherapy to treat himself as well as his patients. He found the effects of colouring in these intricate patterns, to be beneficial in its mindfulness as well as a tool for processing emotions. These are also used in Buddhism, so they seemed to be an appropriate way to engage with these beautiful young children. They were very quiet during the workshops, so deeply ensconced in their colouring. Although Laure would normally need an assistant to work with 20 children, she found them to be so collaborative and supportive of each other, that all she needed to do was hold the space. A beautiful experience!

    Surf Obsession

    Surf Obsession

    Can you call it 'work'? I love the ocean and the excitement of running through the sand dunes to the sea with my surf board. I endeavour to capture that feeling of joy and anticipation through use of colour, texture and movement and a deep observation of skies and how weather affects light across the water. Being immersed in this landscape allows me to work from a deeper, more soulful level

    My garden: A constant source of inspiration

    I love to be immersed in the elements and find true inspiration amongst the vibrant colours of nature. My garden and the surrounding areas of Devon and Cornwall provide me with endless sources of inspiration.
