April Art Club Replay
Lovely, messy intuitive art play!
These are free, playful and fun art sessions. Each month I choose a theme or material I want to play around with and you can either join in, or go off-piste, and do your own thing. I might spend a session playing with wet textures, playing around with how things bleed, mix together, blend. Other times I might grab a handful of random materials and play around with those together. All previous Art Play Dates are available as replays, and each new session adds to the back catalogue to watch and play along with.
Hello! I’m coming to you today with the replay from last week’s Art Club. This month I set up a full still life with a banana, satsumas, flowers and even a fennel bulb, and of course, not forgetting my new ceramic figurine!
This is what I created… Not quite finished, and I dismantled it in a studio tidy zone, so I can’t finish it!
I think it’s actually ideal for a replay, because you can take the time you want - although I encourage you to make a little bit of haste and speed your friend, and help you stay in a light, not over-thinking spirit!
I mentioned last week that I have started a dedicated Art Club Originals shop page, which I will add to each month. You can browse and purchase here. I haven’t added this week’s as it feels quite unfinished, but let me know if you’re interested and we can discuss.
I also mentioned in the video that I wanted to make Art Club weekly for a bit. Given that it’s taken me a week to post the replay, I’m thinking bi-weekly is probably more realistic. So pencil in next Tuesday 22nd at lunchtime BST and I’ll message to confirm asap!
I hope you enjoy! Until next time…

This is a paid post. I would love it if you would consider becoming a paid subscriber. I really appreciate every subscription and see it as a little affirmation that I am on the right track. Read all about my history here. All subs help me to continue making illustrated books, and creating posts here on Substack. And as well as supporting me, you get benefits too. What?! Yes, you heard me! You get access to my big back catalogue of paid posts, and access to my monthly Zoom sessions: Art Club and Picture Book Club. And if you can’t attend live, all sessions are recorded and posted afterwards.
