This four-week painting series offers an immersive introduction to intuitive abstraction, guiding students through the process of creating one cohesive abstract painting shaped by presence, emotion, and embodied creativity. Open to all experience levels, the course centers on exploration and emotional translation rather than technical perfection. Each session begins with a brief grounding meditation to calm the nervous system and create a supportive, focused space for creative flow.
Week 1: Inspiration & Foundation
The opening class establishes the energetic and creative groundwork for the entire series. Students will begin with a grounding meditation to connect with the body and inner imagery, followed by reflective journaling to uncover a personal source of inspiration. The session will also explore color mixing and how color carries emotional and energetic resonance. Students will then begin their abstract painting, using intention and intuitive movement to lay the foundation for the work they will continue to develop throughout the series.
Energetic Support (Optional):
Participants may choose to receive gentle Reiki energy as part of the course by opting in during registration. This optional group Reiki offering is designed to support creative flow, emotional openness, and a sense of ease during the art-making process, and will be provided only to those who elect to participate.
