In this afternoon workshop, we will gather together for meditation, drawing, exploration, and play. Many studies illuminate the calming and restorative effects of meditative drawing, and its positive effects on brain health and well-being. We’ll start with exercises to enjoy the meditative movement of pen or pencil on paper, and learn enjoyable drawing techniques to use throughout the course. We will observe everyday objects with new eyes and new appreciation. A short period of guided meditation and a Dharma talk will be included. Everyone is welcome to join us in a non-intimidating circle of community, as we enjoy drawing with beginner’s mind, whether we are experienced artists, have some or no experience, or have even declared, “I can’t draw.”
If you’ve been with us before, please join us again for new explorations.
