Meditative Drawing with Natural Dyes
Description
Join us for a transformative workshop where you’ll learn meditative drawing techniques to unlock your creativity, find focus, and achieve a state of flow.
Led by artist and Master of Fine Arts graduate, Elam Vanessa Narbey, this workshop is designed to help you let go, surrender, and experience the joy of creating with greater flow.
Using natural dyes made from vegetables, teas, and juices, you’ll explore fluid lines, marks, textures, and patterns, layering dyes with a variety of other drawing materials.
Discover the therapeutic power of meditative drawing as you work through grief, pain, and creative blocks. Vanessa’s extensive teaching experience, specializing in intuitive abstraction and incorporating her knowledge of meditation and reiki into her art-making, will guide you through the process.
