May your heart's wishes be cherished, supported and brought into being. Gently generate your vision for yourself for 2012. Play with paints, cloth and maybe even sparkles to make your personal Wish Flag, which can act as an ongoing guide and solace. Or...just come and noodle around with a crayon or some writing. No pressure to produce. It's all about finding the freedom to express your authentic being.

Draw and Pour: a cuppa, a chat and some art-making. Low-key. Simple. We begin and end with a brief silent meditation. We do our own artplay thing. We allow our painting, drawing and conversation to arise as we go. This is an art circle, rather than a workshop. There's no particular theme, prompt or exercise. You need to be comfortable enough with your own creative process to draw, paint or collage without specific guidance or teaching.
Bring your openness to the Art of Emergence and your respect for equally sharing the airspace. Then just follow the flow of your creative impulses.
Let your paintbrush do the walking while you're sipping, supping, and talking - (rhyme courtesy of Ulli Hansen). I provide strong, gentle hosting and holding of the space, plus basic art materials and morning tea.

There will be a gentle, strong holding structure - a safe space for you to nourish your soul through art-making or writing from the heart.
Each session will include an art or writing warm-up activity designed to free up and honour your unique expression, followed by an opportunity to engage with another guided creative process OR to work and play with your own creative project if you have one.
There will be room for individual guidance and facilitation within a small group.

You can expect to leave each session with

A unique combination of creative expression and life coaching.

Gently explore your experience of peaceful power.
Paint, write, draw or collage within the
generous container of the mandala's sacred circle.

Free up. Connect with your heart of creative power.
This is a double-whammy feast, where you explore what nourishment means to you and you conduct the exploration using yummy art materials.
Mmmmmm.
The focus is on process awareness rather than getting it right. Experienced and inexperienced art and soulies welcome - where we are is where we begin

How might you be light-arted?! Spend a couple of mornings in a cosy, safe space playing with art materials and journalling. Create pictures to help sustain you through the heart of winter and beyond.

Compassionately explore your hopes and dreams. Let yourself play with collage and journalling to express where you are now and what you want for yourself. Honour and strengthen the vision by making a treasure map - a creation arising from the truth of your being, which can then guide your soul's footsteps. No art experience is necessary for you to have a richly satisfying treasure-mapping time.
