Bismillah.
Two years ago, Easel Bay started on this day with a tiny little hope that through our canvases and paints, people will break through the noise of this digital age and bond with eachother.
A basic desire to equip adults and kids with creative confidence so that we can use whatever medium is at our disposal to express ourselves, without the fear of being compared or judged.
A simple wish to make people believe in the therapeutic power of everyday Art.
Through public events and workshops, private parties to Couple therapy, Ladies sessions and team-building events, Easel Bay has reached hearts across so many layers of our society.
Pictured here is Dr.Shagufta with her youngest son, Danish. She was in a anxious frenzy when we crossed paths at a public event in January 2018. We invited her to paint at our stall and SubhanAllah, how the paint strokes ironed out her stress-stricken nerves. This is a picture that her son shared months after she painted with us. He was amazed how his Mother, who has been battling with psychiatric disorders for decades found peace in this medium.
Alhamdolillah for this canvas reaching the right place :).
