A glimpse of some of the pigments we will be working with on Saturday at Mulranny Arts . During the workshop we will see where the pigments come from, learn how to transform them into paint and have fun experimenting with them. I especially love working with peat, what a beautiful deep brown it makes. Book online asap if you would like to join us. I can't wait to deliver a workshop in the new studio space, the views are incredible.

The rain as it comes in across Clew Bay this afternoon. The incredible view from the new studio space at Mulranny Arts. As much as I like a sunny day, I love this kind of moody sky the best. I have been beavering away trying to recreate this moody sky feeling will indigo grown at home and earth pigment collected locally. Looking forward to sharing what I am learning about collecting, processing and working with natural pigment on Saturdays workshop. Can't believe I get to deliver a workshop from this beautiful space.

Taking some snaps this evening to think about compositions for this weekend's workshop with Padraig McCaul at Mulranny Arts. I am so looking forward to spending two days painting here. I love Padraig's work and there is so much drama in the landscape here.

Empty mind knows the world with mirror deep clarity as the cosmos opens to itself. This reorients our relationship with the world replacing separation with integration, alienation with kinship, isolation with togetherness. This is Wild Mind integrated with Wild earth. (WildMind, WildEarth - David Hinton).

Looking forward to delivering this workshop at Mulranny Arts. We will spend time exploring how and where to find pigments, how to process them. With time to play with paints and ink we make together on the day and experience how working with natural pigments we find in the landscape deepens our connection with place and adds a whole new meaning to creating art work.

Who we are and what we do

Living Bridge Community Interest Company (CIC)

Based in the Calder Valley in West Yorkshire, we are a small collective of experienced therapists and mental health professionals with a passionate belief in the transformative healing power of the ‘great outdoors’. We have created the Living Bridge CIC to be a conduit between nature-based practitioners such as ourselves and people and groups interested in exploring how spending time in the living world can enhance mental health and well being of individuals and communities.

We work with people on a range of activities and workshops designed to enhance connection to the environment and the sense of belonging to place. This can help improve mood, reduce stress, anxiety and loneliness, provide support with bereavement and loss and cultivate greater emotional resilience.

Underpinning everything we do is our desire to provide an experience of the joy of reforging a personal, close and life-time relationship with nature, often lost or sidelined by the pressures of modern day living.
