Mindful & creative art classes, workshops & events in Nottingham
What's upcoming?
Hello, I’m so glad you’re here!
I’m currently in the process of setting up Doodle and Paint — a space for relaxed, creative workshops where you can slow down, connect with others, and enjoy making art just for the fun of it.
I’ll be running a mix of mindful art sessions, fun Sip & Paint evenings, and family-friendly workshops — all designed to be welcoming, pressure-free, and open to everyone, no matter your experience.
Events will be launching in and around Nottingham soon!

Our Story
I’m Kelly — an artist and art teacher with a big passion for creativity in all its messy, imperfect forms.
After spending the last few years teaching art in secondary schools, I’ve seen first-hand how creativity is being squeezed out of our lives — in both education and adulthood. We’re living in a world that often prioritises perfection over play, outcomes over process, and that makes it really hard for people to feel free to just make.
That’s why I started Doodle and Paint.
This is my way of creating space for people, of all ages and abilities, to reconnect with their creative spark. To slow down, let go of expectations, and rediscover the simple joy of making art for art’s sake.
Whether it’s through a mindful art session, a playful Sip & Paint, or a family-friendly workshop, my mission is the same:
To help you create, connect with, and celebrate your creativity — exactly as you are.
— Kelly 🎨
