NaturArt workshops bring together birding, creativity and the great outdoors.
Join a relaxed, intuitive painting session inspired by birds and nature. No need to have held a brush since school. Most people arrive convinced they “can’t draw” or “aren’t creative” and leave holding a creation they’re proud of.
When someone slows down enough to really look at a bird, or to mix a colour for its wing, they start to care about it. It’s the gentlest possible on-ramp to noticing, and protecting, the wild things on our doorstep.
Workshops facilitated across Bristol and Gloucestershire, perfect for hen-dos, birthday parties, corporate team-days, and community groups who want something a little more memorable.

Hi, I’m Livvy
Ten years ago I went to Wales and saw my first puffins. I came home a changed person. That moment kicked off an obsession with birdwatching, stencilling and spray art that I genuinely haven’t been able to shake.
Since discovering the joy of bird watching and being able to capture those charismatic creatures with paint, I am obsessed
Livvy Drake
NaturArt grew from a simple idea: that painting and nature belong to everyone, not just people who already think of themselves as artists or birdwatchers.
What Previous Attendees Say
