Sat 30th May 2026 PaperArtsy Play Day (EDIT: SOLD OUT!
Sat 13th June 2026 Square Art EDIT: SOLD OUT!


Working in small squares is such a fun and liberating way to make art. Keep it small and cute or make and more and more squares and go large! Large art made from small art is the way to go. Lots of techniques in this class – collage, mark making, mixed media layers, abstract watercolours, stamping, found poetry, stitching … we might even throw in a bit of shrink plastic! Do them all or stick with your favourite, it’s up to you. Small art can be used on tags, cards, journal pages, wall art, mini books - it really is so flexible and lends itself to many projects. Kate will also show you how to make and fold your own mini matchbox frame to create super cute mini art. We’ll be using all sorts of materials on the day and we’ll have plenty to use
After a short break from teaching Kate is back with a play day using her latest collection for Paper Artsy. Pictures to follow once the latest collection is released….. Lots of painting, Infusions, stencilling, and general merry mess making! Cards, tags, journal pages … Of course Kate will bring along her previous collections too so plenty of choice and different stamps and stencils to play with on the day.

I had a really fantastic time. It's the people, the teacher, and the environment, it just brings out the best in all of us. Thanks for the brilliant tips Kate, I'll never forget them.
Well I've had the most enjoyable day today. I really had a lot of fun at Art from the Heart (AFTH), .... it should be dished out as therapy ..... I sang all the way home in the car on cloud nine! The paint-ier my hands (and face) got today the happier I became. Kate Crane was of course on top form again drawing out the secret artist inside you. I'm always surprised about all the creative things I've made when I get home. If you've not been for a class there, then you should seriously think about having a go.
What a great weekend - I am inspired and had a fabulous time. You are an amazing teacher who seems effortlessly to help others find their creative side. I am excited to carry on with my unfinished pages. It was great meeting you and seeing all of your fantastic work first hand - thank you for the tips you shared with us, for your time, ideas and encouragement. I look forward to taking another workshop with you in future.
