You didn’t plan to arrive here. But then again, neither did I when I first slipped into paint. It began quietly — not as a life decision, but as a longing. A need for colour, movement, and a space where the mind could rest and the heart could speak again. Somewhere along the way, art stopped being a hobby and became a doorway back to myself. This Tea House was born from that doorway. A warm, quiet sanctuary for introspective, artsy souls who find themselves in a moment of transition —a new country, a quieter house, a career pause, a shift in identity, or simply a deeper longing for meaning. Not everyone speaks of these moments. But they are tender. And they matter. Here, you don’t have to perform. You don’t have to impress. The Tea House is a place where you can breathe. Each week, we gather for Tea & Pages — a gentle journaling prompt, a colour, a question, a tiny spark of creation to anchor you back into yourself. Each month, we explore a theme —a doorway into your inner landscape. We paint. We write. We soften. We rediscover the parts of ourselves that had gone quiet. There are no critics here. No pressure to be brilliant or productive. Just curiosity, and a community of kind, light-minded people who hold a gentle space for each other. If you choose to stay, I hope you find your joy in creating. So make a tea. Find a comfortable place. Let the world slow down for a moment. Welcome to the Art Is Magic Tea House.
