Immerse yourself in a world of fantasy florals and find inner peace while drawing!

Making art can be a wonderful way to cultivate mindfulness. When you immerse yourself fully in the process and focus on every detail and every mark you make, you can easily forget your worries, at least for a while.

In this class, I’ll show you three drawing exercises based on mindfulness practices that will help you to slow down, de-stress, and stay present in the moment. As a bonus, you’ll get to create something really pretty!

You don’t need any skills to participate, and I encourage you to let go of any pressure to "perform" as an artist here.

We’ll play with intricate patterns and details, yet the whole process will be very simple to grasp. I'll show you step by step how to draw every design – slowly and mindfully.

I specifically designed these exercises around drawing abstract fantasy florals to reduce any self-criticism or anxiety you might feel regarding your skills.

When you stop obsessing about how your drawing "should" look and focus on the pure experience of putting pen to paper instead, wonderful things happen, not only for your mind and soul but also for your art. When you feel happy and relaxed, you get into the flow of creation and invite inspiring ideas more easily.

We’ll be focusing on the process rather than the specific outcome, so just take a deep breath and enjoy the journey.
