Playing with inks during the Women's Art Group last week to create new pages for our journals, using manuscript paper and old books. As you can see, there is some beautiful pages made which can be base layers, or torn and decorated further. It is always such fun and so freeing to play with inks. ... #womensartgroup #womensart #communityart #creativeartgroup #artgroup #ink #inkstagram #manuscript #painting @nwnnewwritingnorth #journaling #artjournal #wellbeing #mindful #mindfullcrafting #colour #colourful #journalinspiration #journalcommunity #artjournalpage #newcastlearts #keepingmeoutoftrouble #beautiful #takingcare #takingcareofme #mindfulness https://www.instagram.com/p/CoHsXAHISR4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

With the Women's Art Group, we have started to look at journaling, scrapbooking, art and bullet journals as a way to relax and record. These are lovely, lively sessions, with lots of love, respect and support within the group for each other. It's a blessing to be part of. ... #womensartgroup #womensart #journaling #scrapbooking #artjournal #bulletjournal #sharing #art #mindful #mindfulcrafting #mindfuljournaling #relaxing #takingcare #happy #makinghappy #creativeartgroup #blessing #womensgroup @nwnnewwritingnorth https://www.instagram.com/p/CnrQ9hKt6A6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Gorgeous International Women's Day banner made by the Women's Art Group at the Galafield Centre in Newbiggin Hall. Unveiled this morning. Fantastic creative work by the group, full of symbolism. These sessions have been great fun, where time passes too quickly! This year's theme for #internationalwomensday : ' Gender equality today for a sustainable future.' Whilst planning, designing and making the banner, the group have been learning new skills and techniques. These have become hobbies they now enjoy at home and we will be able to use in our next creative project. ... #iwd #iwd2022 #internationalwomensday2022 #artgroup #creativeartgroup #wellbeing #community #communityart #craft #craftivism #craftivist #womensartgroup #banner #textilebanner #bannermaking #galafield #galafieldcentre #gertrudeederle #amyjohnson #momowlam #princessdiana #gretathunberg #rosietheriveter #rosaparks #joanarmatrading #redellen #emilywildingdavison #jessicaennishill #motherteresa https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca2HWO2s52X/?utm_medium=tumblr
