This workshop is a nurturing weekly activity that not only teaches art skills but also serves as a creative reset. It's an opportunity to slow down, observe, and reconnect with your creativity through mindful drawing.
Perfect for beginners and anyone seeking an hour of relaxation and creativity, this workshop requires no prior drawing or mandala experience.
Materials required:
- Plain paper or a sketchbook
- A pencil, eraser, and ruler
- Black fineliner or gel pen
- Optional coloured pencils or watercolours
After each session, you will not only have a beautiful finished artwork but also a new perspective on the world around you. Join a single session or return weekly to expand your collection of hidden mandalas.
