In this on-going process painting group,
we paint from the heart and body-mind, responding to
what is within. It’s a hands-on approach to direct
observation, inquiry, and self-compassion. This process
is equally generative for all skill levels. No prior
painting experience is necessary. This weekly circle
includes special activities to warm up and seed ideas,
as well as demos and practice with specific techniques
that work for acrylic painting.
10 classes for $220 pre-paid,
4 classes for $120 pre-paid, or $35 drop-in. Class
cards/prices good for Winter session only. Group guided
by artist and educator Margaret Lindsey. Please call
ahead if you are coming for the first time.
