Quiet Your Mind With Art and Lines

Access

About

Learn the calming and meditative practice of adding ink lines to abstract art. Through this workshop, I will guide you to make your own abstract piece of art and then together we will add ink lines to it. Crooked, straight, curvy, thin and thick. The process of adding lines will gradually result in an intricate network and slowly odd little shapes will start to emerge. This process will calm your mind while gently exercising it at the same time. Lastly, we will all play a game that I like to call, "What do you see?". You will be surprised by the number of different interpretations we will hear at the end!
