Drawing Connections to Nature
With Barbara Amos
July 11 - 15, 2022
Ages: 18+ ♦ M-W-F 9:30 am – 11:45 am ♦ Materials fee $30
Drawing can quiet the mind and open the path to a larger presence. These drawing challenges foster laughter as we quell the critic and move into focus and intent. They are designed to open new ways to perceive the connections between the natural world, the creative process and a spiritual path. We will explore how our own personal drawing practices can become rituals that bring balance to our lives.
All levels of experience are welcome. No previous drawing skills are necessary.
Basic materials will be provided: cardstock or sketchbook, black felts tips, 2B pencil, erasers.
Other materials: a small set of colours, ie watercolours, felt tips or pencil crayons, collage materials are optional. A small camera or a phone camera, a portable chair/cushion for outdoor work, might be helpful but not required.
