My Journey of Self-Discovery

​

Over 11 years ago, I began a journey of self-discovery that has shaped who I am today. Growing up, I loved painting but because no one ever told me I was “good” at it I never pursued art. Until years later, when I found myself lost and with this need to change careers that I created space for creativity and mindfulness in my life and everything changed.

Art is not about being "good" or having talent. It’s about self-expression and connecting with your heart. I’ve seen firsthand how creating art can positively impact wellbeing—not just in my life, but in the lives of my students and clients.

​

Art + Mindfulness = Healing​

After being a full-time teacher for 10 years, I turned back to art. I was already a meditation teacher, so I began blending mindfulness and creativity in workshops. I discovered that when I meditated before painting, I could rewrite old beliefs about myself that were stopping me from moving forwards. I found that creating art with intention became a tool for healing and personal transformation. I believe that the real magic of art lies in the journey. When you paint with mindfulness, you’re not just creating art, you’re gaining awareness of your thoughts and emotions, delving deeper into who you truly are.

A Bit About My Background

I am a trained coach, meditation and yoga teacher, and a multi passionate artist. My journey includes over 10 years of meditation practice, 300 hours of yoga training, and different types of meditation teacher training. I’m passionate about using creative approaches to learning and transforming yourself.​ Before starting Pitu Studio, I spent years as a full-time school teacher, specialising in supporting neurodivergent students. It was there that I realised how art could be an incredible tool for connection and healing. Now, as a mindful art coach, I create safe spaces for others to explore mindfulness, art, and personal growth.
