Basic Sacred Geometry

Kaye Locke reviewed: Beach Art Workshop Wales

"Spent a wonderful morning learning how to produce beautiful and huge 'sacred circles' in the sand. We all appreciated Bill's knowledge and passion, and were surprised and delighted when we saw the results of our work taken from above by Bill's drone. Would recommend as an enjoyable, mindful, and satisfying learning experience."

"We've booked the beach art experience with our two daughters (9 and 5 y.o.) and had some great time creating patterns on the sand. Bill guided us carefully and we just went with the flow and created a beautiful pattern. I also loved that Bill made some pictures with a drone which allowed us to look at our art from the top. Thank you!"

"We had a wonderful time making sand art with Bill. We had a large group and spent some time playing with different mark-making tools and techniques before working together on a big pattern. Bill was very easy to communicate with and had great suggestions for the group. Would thoroughly recommend for a peaceful few hours absorbed in nature!"

"A wonderful experience! Bill was a fantastic teacher and even managed to get our 2 year old enthused about making patterns in the sand! We would highly recommend this to anyone - interesting, fun and very satisfying."

"Awesome experience. I was surprised how quick it was to draw a really big pattern in the sand. I’d love to do more. The location is gorgeous and Bill was a great host."

"I booked this for my daughter's art project. Bill tailored it really well for her with some great personalised communication beforehand about what would suit. We had a lovely afternoon on a stunning sunny Polzeath beach. They accomplished quite a few pieces of lovely varied art. Made for great photography too."

Lucy Ahmed reviewed: Basic Sacred Geometry

"I had a totally enlightening hour with Bill online today and learnt so much about Sacred Geometry and how our paper drawings could be used on a much bigger beach or even field canvas. A wonderful starting point for anyone thinking about their summer beach holidays and the pack alone of templates and ideas will keep me busy for some time. It's incredible what you can make with same sized circles and I can see now how these techniques were developed for more complex Islamic designs which is one of my interests. I can warmly recommend this short starter course to anyone. It was very good value to have such an experienced artist on a one-to-one basis to myself and we went far over the time allocated in a very relaxed and informal way. Thanks Bill."

Beach Art responded:

"Thanks Lucy! It was such fun having you do the session. I learnt a lot from you too, especially about your interests in Islamic design. I do hope you will use some of your new ideas and designs on a bigger canvas once the lockdown ends and you can get onto your local beach. Please contact me again if you need any advice or want to join a Beach Art course. I am happy to offer a 50% discount for you and your family members. Best wishes."

"I did the course with Bill via that Airbnb Experiences site and had a wonderful two hours on the beach learning how to make star patterns within the grid of a massive Flower of Life. It looked amazing from the cliffs above but the main thing for me was the meditative nature of the experience. Very calming and great to be by the sea focused on easy to follow instructions. Highly recommend to anyone."

Beach Art responded:

"Thanks Sam. It was great fun and you did a great job! Photos available on my Facebook @beachartists page. Best regards, Bill"

Andi reviewed: Beach Art North Cornwall

"I booked this with my 14 year old son. I can honestly say it was one of the most absorbing and unique experiences i have had through airbnb. For anyone who thinks they are not an artist and wants to know how to do this - trust me you wont be disappointed. Bill is also a very lovely man and gentle teacher who has a lot of knowledge - which he shares only if you're interested otherwise will leave you to work on creating a magical piece of art with quiet guidance. My son was super proud of his work and felt encouraged, never criticised and he felt he learnt some new skills too. Thank you Bill..."

Beach Art responded:

"Thanks Andi, I enjoyed the day too and the heavy sea mist that came in certainly added to an almost surreal setting at times. I wish you both well with your futures and hope that you develop your ideas of combining sacred geometric shapes with sounds. It's all so connected! I certainly learnt something new today too... how straight lines can be drawn a completely different way by pushing the marker out ahead of you. Best regards, Bill"

Lisa reviewed: Beach Art North Cornwall

"We had the most magical two hours on the beach with Bill this morning. He was hugely accommodating to all ages and abilities, encouraging us all to try out our own designs with lots of tips and insight along the way. He was interested in our lives and family and his knowledge and passion for all things Fibonacci was super interesting :-) We loved creating our beach art, found it satisfying, liberating and utterly therapeutic! Would defiantly recommend to anyone to try for a couple of magical hours on the beach x"

Beach Art responded:

"Thanks Lisa for your very kind review. It was a really fun session and everyone really gave it a go. The photos are in an album on my Beach Art facebook page if you want to use any of them. Your children were amazing and Matt too! A really dynamic team. You should be very proud. Best regards and thanks for marking out those 61 large circles to make the Flower of Life with such dedication and accuracy! I think everyone was impressed!"
