If you’re in need of inspiration,
Ways to bring charm into your days,
Small prompts to inject hope into your outlook,
Opportunities to feel more authentically connected to life,
Heart Song is calling!
This six part creative-process course explores themes such as:
The stories we tell ourself
Facing our mortality
The art of paying attention
Making conscious choices
A sacred adventure
Through spontaneous art-making we practice being in the present moment and following our gut responses. We capture and convey ideas and emotions through mark making, and intuitive colour and image selection. The key is to stay focussed on the present moment, trusting yourself. In so doing, we tap into our deeper consciousness, and our inner wisdom.
You will be guided through practices such as mixed-media collage, playful mark-making, and wet-on-wet painting; techniques that encourage you to let go, get curious and have fun!
Once you have completed an art-making process, you are offered a writing exercise to reflect on the theme and on what you have expressed through your art. This is where the magic happens and personal insights surface.
Each session includes:
- A life-oriented theme.
- Art Demonstration with suggested art materials.
- Meditation to launch you into your art-making.
- Music playlist to accompany your creative activity.
- Reflection writing exercise to glean personal insights offered through your art.
- Opportunities to share with fellow participants.
NB!! Anyone can do this! No art experience is necessary. The goal isn’t to make art to hang over your mantlepiece, but to explore the Self. You are not making art to please anyone … The only critic you have to confront is yourself.
