Discovering Art & Grind: Guildford’s new High Street artist spot

I'm excited to share a fantastic new spot in Guildford that has recently opened: 'Art & Grind'. The cafe combines delicious food and drinks with a vibrant, creative atmosphere, making it a perfect haven for both artists and art lovers.

The cafe is filled with natural light streaming through its huge windows, creating an airy and inspiring space. I personally recommend hiring an easel and ordering a cheese, pesto, and pepper panini to eat whilst you work. I found painting in Art & Grind to be a new but exciting experience- I had not painted in public before but it was lovely to talk to so many cafe-goers about my creative process and everyone was so supportive!

Recently, I was filmed whilst painting in the cafe, and have been featured in their latest social media campaign. The video is on their instagram page: @artandgrind.

It’s a great spot and definitely worth stopping by.

Happy painting and bon appétit!
