Mindful Drawing (Croton Falls)

Service Description

“Life’s about the journey not the destination.” Let yourself be guided through a series of mindful drawing exercises, where you’ll strengthen your ability to be present for life’s journey. Appropriate for both new and experienced artists (and meditators), this 90-minute class will start with the Zen practice of Enso, a traditional meditation technique using ink, brush and paper. After experiencing this tranquil and centering art form, participants will be invited to play with several meditative drawing techniques that invite clearer seeing of what is really in front of us – not just what our mind assumes is there. As Monet said, “To see, we must forget the name of the thing we are looking at.” The class will close with a time-lapse drawing, inviting participants to tune into each moment as fresh and distinct – both in art and in life. Throughout the workshop, there will be plenty of time for conversation and community. Participants can expect to leave this workshop relaxed and revived.
