Classes
PLEASE CONTACT LILLIAN IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN HOSTING MANDALA OR GEOMETRY DRAWING CLASSES.
She is available FOR GROUPS OR INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTION AND FEEDBACK.
Instruction is easy going, materials are supplied, you will have lots of support.
Mandalas are contemplative tools for moving between the inner and outer experience — they serve as a link between worlds. When you make a mandala, you resonate with the essence of your deepest self and the collective spirit. Drawing mandalas can restore a feeling of peace, while imparting an innate understanding of the mysteries of the universe.
Each session begins with a centering exercise, to help balance and calm the mind, then you are free to work in whatever style suits your mood of the day: whether free style or with geometric forms. After the drawing session, we look at the fruits of the session, and think about what the drawings have delivered back to you. What came up? We discuss colours, symbols, patterns and meanings, intuitions and interpretations that may you help to resonate more deeply with your mandala drawings.
Supportive instruction is given, but it’s not an “art class” that focuses on techniques, you simply Start Where You Are.
We discuss composition, color theory, geometric forms, compass skills, and concepts behind mandalas
Each class is a little different and an ongoing discovery of personal expression.
Many art materials on hand, but you’re welcome and encouraged to bring your favourites.
