Playful Being: Creating from Presence Workshop, WWAC

Sunday April 3, 2022
10:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Creativity and playfulness are at the heart of this workshop. Using embodied movement and breathing meditation, we begin by cultivating awareness and presence. In this place of receptivity, we “get out of our own way” and allow creativity to happen on its own. Throughout the workshop, the guide offers contemplations and poetry to spark creative energy. The process flows freely allowing for the arising of joy, curiosity, insights and healing. Holding our brushes as friends, creativity moves through earth, air, body and brush, becoming something fresh on the page. Here we pause observing what existence has offered in the moment. Sharing, we continue together guided by our hearts. Materials are provided. Workshop participants take home a hand-inscribed bamboo brush, a collection of intuitive paintings, A copy of the book: “Waking Up With Art”, fresh insights and inspiration, and all creative supplies are included. Participants will create 15 to 20 paintings.
