Description
Meditative painting is an art form where the painter (that's you!) is guided by their thoughts or feelings to create art without planning how an image will emerge. You define and clarify whatever is created to tell an underlying story.
This kind of painting can be used to break out of a creative slump, do energy healing work, resolve painful situations, or to try to understand what your inner self is thinking or feeling about something.
In this class, you will learn how to create beautiful paintings in a meditative style.
We will focus on creating pieces that reflect your vision of the oceans- whether that is a peaceful and serene scene or one that is full of life and colour.
Painting can be a great way to process your feelings about the oceans and the issues they are facing. It can also be a way to find a vision of the oceans you want to work towards. This class is designed to help you do both of those things.
Meditative painting is a relaxing way to develop your own personal style of art, regardless of your skill level. Anyone can paint!
No previous experience with acrylics is required. This class is open to all levels!
