Paint Your Pleasure the finished canvas
Introducing "Paint Your Pleasure," an immersive workshop that invites you to explore and express your unique sources of pleasure through the transformative power of painting. Guided by my expertise as a coach, this workshop offers a safe and supportive space for individuals to connect with their pleasures and bring them to life on a large communal canvas.
In this workshop, we delve deep into the realm of pleasure, uncovering the experiences, sensations, and emotions that ignite our inner joy. Through a series of guided exercises and prompts, I assist participants in identifying their personal pleasures and translating them into vibrant strokes on the canvas. Whether it's the bliss of a sunny beach day, the serenity of a quiet moment in nature, or the thrill of a dancefloor, each pleasure becomes an artistic expression that radiates from within.
For those who may feel hesitant or shy about picking up a paintbrush, I am here to offer gentle guidance and support. Together, we navigate any self-doubt and embrace the joy of creating without judgment. The workshop environment is carefully curated, with a darkened room illuminated by uplifting uplighting, creating an atmosphere that enhances the experience of working with UV paint.
As the communal canvas takes shape, it becomes a tapestry of collective pleasure, representing the diverse and beautiful range of experiences shared by the participants. The workshop encourages connection, empathy, and a sense of unity as we witness the power of pleasure and creativity to bring people together.
"Paint Your Pleasure" is not only an opportunity to explore your personal joys but also a chance to cultivate self-awareness, self-expression, and a deeper connection to your inner desires. It celebrates the transformative nature of art and pleasure, allowing you to unleash your creativity in a supportive and inspiring environment.
Join me in this workshop, where we embark on a journey of self-discovery, unearthing the pleasures that ignite our souls and translating them into a stunning visual celebration of life.

Meet the Artist
Bristol, United KingdomHi there! I'm Katie, a multidisciplinary Artist and Coach based in Bristol. My unique perspective on art stems from my experience as a Coach, where I have developed a deep understanding of themes such as gender, sexuality, and relationships. My art serves as a reflection of this knowledge and is characterized by its focus on the LGBTQIA+ community and queer topics, bringing visibility to often underrepresented perspectives.
My work is a powerful expression of the complexities of identity and the human experience. I use multiple mediums to add depth and nuance to important conversations, particularly around mental health and LGBTQIA+ topics. From playful posters promoting events to thought-provoking exhibitions that create conversations around big (and sometimes sensitive) topics, and short animations for socials that playfully catch the eye.
I create art that inspires and challenges the status quo.
As a Coach, I help individuals navigate through challenging moments, helping the fog shift and the "I don't know what to do" moments become clearer. I provide much-needed space and time for individuals to be with themselves, helping them navigate their way to their own advice, help, and solutions. I make my clients feel completely seen and heard, helping them regain the confidence to think for themselves.
I am dedicated to creating a more equitable and just world through my work as both an Artist and a Coach. My art is a celebration of individuality and a call for increased understanding and acceptance for all.
