About this Event
Studies in the Creative Arts Therapies have shown that drawing, especially when incorporated as part of a regular meditative practice, can help promote relaxation, mindful presence, beneficial "flow" states, and a sense of well being.
In this weekly practice session, we will learn and share a variety of drawing techniques that are especially good for helping promote a meditative state. Some areas we have explored, but are not limited to, included:
- Neurographic art
- Touch drawing
- Blind contour drawing
- "slow" drawing
- Zentangle and Zen Doodling
- drawing from still life
- Reverse water color pages
- adding shading and color to pen and ink drawings
Sessions are facilitated by professionals in the fine arts and Creative Arts Therapies. All necessary tools and materials are provided. You are welcome to bring your own favorite materials as desired. No prior experience is necessary for Mindful Drawing sessions, just your sense of curiosity and creativity. Bring a friend or two and share in the fun!
