Beer Included Pub Tour with a Scotsman

Who’s coming down the pub? The question that’s music to every British persons ears! This experience is great for folk that want a truly authentic British experience of ‘going down the pub’ All of the pubs we’ll visit have historical significance although that’s not why I’ve chosen them. I’ve chosen them based on one simple thing, they’re all great pubs! London has over 3000 pubs to choose from and it can be daunting trying to find the good ones but I’ve done the research (hard work I know!) and chosen a few of my favourites. We’ll visit an original gin palace, one voted the hardest to find, an authentic London boozer and a couple of other gems! Being Scottish we have to stop at the William Wallace memorial close to the first pub. Discover if Scotlands most famous freedom fighter did really shout 'Freeeeedom!' (spoiler alert, he didn't!). To save you the hassle of getting served at the bar I will get the beers in! A half pint of beer in each pub is included in the price of the experience. We will try various different beers including the ever popular British cask or ‘real ale’ beer. So ‘Who’s coming down the pub’? Slàinte (Cheers!)

Jack the Ripper & the Five Women of Whitechapel

Journey back to Whitechapel 1888... Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly. These are the names of the five women whose lives were brutally cut short by the serial killer commonly known as Jack the Ripper in 1888. In this revealing tour around the streets of Whitechapel, we focus on their story, the lives they led, the London they knew. We will discover the series of events which led them all to fall prey to a murderer, and journey back in time to understand the reasons why the police were never able to solve the case, unpacking the greatest murder mystery of all. Who were the chief suspects? Was Jack actually Jill? Was there a grand conspiracy hushed up by the establishment? On the way we thread through the atmospheric streets of Whitechapel, discovering original buildings from the time, and visiting some of the actual spots where the gruesome murders took place, and the set of circumstances which led them to their fate.

Street Portrait Workshop Developing An Artistic Vision

Have you ever wanted to stop a stranger and take their photo? It happens to me everyday! In the three hours we have together I will coach you on how to stop and speak to strangers. I will help you to think about your creative vision and to work towards creating your own body of work. I also offer further coaching and accountability sessions online after the experience has finished. Living in London is as good as having a photography studio on your doorstep. If you love taking photos of people or want to improve your skills there are few better places in the world to that London to do it. Taking street portraits is about more than just pointing your camera at random strangers and getting a cool photo. It is also about the interaction you have with another person and applying your skills in a very limited amount of time. It may sound scary but it is alot of fun and incredibly rewarding and a great way to meet people too! We will meet in London's East End and then we will hit the streets and work our way across town, stopping people and asking them to take their portrait. I have worked with photographers of all levels, so all are welcome. There will be some instruction on techniques and a lot of exploring of some of the less touristic places in London.

Learn Woodcut Printing With An Artist

Due to COVID-19 I will be running my current workshops as either on a one-one basis or as a group maximum of 3 people - this helps to ensure safe social distancing and good hygiene in my studio. The workshop is about learning the use of traditional Japanese hand tools, the process of inking wood blocks, printing on different types of handmade printing paper and developing a new understanding of various techniques in woodcut art. All of which enable you to make numerous fine art prints to take away at the end of of the session! Intro - Cups of tea, coffee or soft drinks followed by some words from me on my printmaking career and a round the table 'meet and greet' from everyone to begin the workshop. Stage 1 - We will cover the use of hand tools to design, draw and cut woodblocks and explore the process of hand printing using traditional Japanese barens (circular discs wrapped in bamboo) and rollers on three types of paper. Stage 2 - Delve a little deeper, showing you how to use multiple blocks and reduction-cutting techniques to create more complex multi colour prints. Stage 3 - This a perfect opportunity to make multiple prints through editions, ending the final part of the session by experimenting with your favourite design or playing various colours. Stage 4 - Everyone’s prints will be wrapped in tissue paper and put in card tubes for safe passage home. Other things to note Please bring anything that may inspire your designs—sketchbooks, photos, fabric, found imagery etc. Plus there are plenty of art books and previous classes' prints to show off this wonderful medium!

Talk Time with A Mediator

Talk and meditation We’ll talk. We all experience disharmony in our lives. A common misconception is that conflict has to involve a second person. We can also experience internal conflicts which can cause us anxiety and moments of sadness. These talking sessions are a way of helping you explore and identify those conflicts / disharmonies and help you identify tools to help you deal with them on a day to day basis, whether the disharmony relates the the world and the changes or to you and your personal relationships. These are informal but confidential talking sessions within a safe non judgemental space, to help you create peace and balance. Maybe your relationships are not as harmonious as you would like them to maybe, maybe the recent issues in the world have left you with emotions and feelings that you are not sure what to do with, maybe you just want someone to talk to.. At the beginning of the talk we will participate in an energy clearing ritual, to help with relaxation. The end of the talk will be followed by a guided meditation.
