Join art therapist, Kara Ashley-Gilmore, for a special session of Mindful Mark-Making. We will blend the 7 essential principles of mindfulness with intuitive art practices, using drawing and watercolors as tools for relaxation. You’ll be guided through a series of creative mark-making exercises and grounding techniques, culminating in an extended, meditative painting session.
During this workshop, we will explore Neurographic Art—a powerful method rooted in Pavel Piskarev’s Neurographica® model. We will create fluid, organic lines and shapes resembling neural pathways and cells, and add mark-making elements along the way.
What’s Included in Your Session:
🧘♀️🌳 Opening Guided Meditation & Focused Grounding Exercises.
📘✨ The "Principles of Mindfulness for Art-Making" Takeaway Guide.
✍️〰️ Hands-on instruction for Neurographic line work and meditative mark-making.
🎨💖 An extended period of self-directed, meditative painting and creation.
🤝🗣️ A closing sharing circle for connection and reflection.
Absolutely no art experience is required! All supplies—including rich watercolor paints, drawing pens, and acrylic markers—are provided for your use. Just bring your willingness to play, and your desire to connect and share!
