Back by popular demand! On the occasion of Radical Resilience artist Catherine Lecce-Chong will lead a workshop that will guide participants in mindfulness and resilience through their own creative process.
In this workshop, a variety of guided meditations interwoven with painting instructions will be demonstrated. The artist will be providing a variety of handmade tactile drawings for participants to use, one of the helpful blind techniques used in her own paintings. A community collaboration project will be made with participants’ individual paintings. Besides mindful art making, there will be some teaching of eco-friendly painting techniques. This class is created for anyone at any level of meditation and art experience. Participants may bring a blanket or shawl for a different meditation experience.
About the Teaching Artist: Catherine Lecce-Chong is a bay area artist with visual disabilities. She is also a trained trauma-informed meditation teacher. Cathy does not experience a big difference between meditation practice and art making. Both use intention setting, focused attention, connection to all beings, and compassion. Lecce-Chong has exhibited her tactile paintings in Subject Matters: The Art of Disability Culture at Ruth’s Table Gallery.
