WORKSHOP 25 Jan 2025 Vitality Bloom Nursery – Nature Awe & Artist – In This Place & Season

Description

A delightful, informative, contemplative tuning in to where we are in the world.
Learn to see nature through the eyes of an artist. Deepen your connection to right here, right now.

Combining observation, foundational drawing exercises, seasonal discoveries, local awareness, and shared perceptions, we will spend the day immersed in being sensitive to this local place and this particular microseason.

Through artistic enquiry, we will be anchoring into the outside world that is so often a generalised passing background to our schedules and inner monologues. By slowing down and seeing the exquisite details and marvels of our everyday natural world, we give ourselves the gift of presence in, and appreciation of, the here and now – the place where we live.

For artists and total beginners.
Nibbles and all art materials supplied. Tea, coffee, lunch and snacks are available in the cafe.

Bring: phone camera. You are welcome to bring your lunch (and an esky if required) or lunch is available at the onsite cafe. Please consider sensible shoes, sunscreen, hat and a water bottle for the outside times. You may like to bring an art apron.
All art materials supplied and you are welcome to bring any paper, pens or paints that you like to draw/paint with.
