Wonder & Worth:
A Wellness through Creativity Workshop
Featuring: Tina Lawver, Professional Artist
Saturday, April 15th – 11a.m.-2 p.m.
In this painting workshop, we will explore living in state of Wonder, with the grounding of knowing our Worth. All the while creating a beautiful painting based on a series of birds, original art by Tina.
All of us, whether we believe it or not, were created creative. Our bodies, minds, and spirits are geared to respond to the creativity all around us. Whether we are shopping for food, clothing, cars, the movies we go to, how we dress our children and so much more…even how we do tasks that may seem mundane, like taxes and mowing the lawn.
Participating in creativity is, undeniably, part of our design and by not nurturing it, we deny ourselves a wonderful aspect that adds so much richness to life.
So, with that in mind, The Bohemian Mama and Tina Lawver are collaborating to offer another workshop created to explore wellness through creativity.
In this workshop, Tina will lead how to work through and overcome the things that may stop us from creating such as the resistance that one can expect from a creative pursuit, but this time, we will create a painting with the subject matter, Birds with the focus worthiness and finding joy in wonder.
Tina shares how she’s heard so many times…
“I can’t paint”, “I can’t even draw a stick figure”, “I don’t have a creative bone in my body” “I’m not talented”She believes that, You Can, You Do, and You, most certainly, Are! You may be surprised how very little “talent” has to do with it.
We will Overcome the blank canvas with a unique formula that she uses in her own process of creating art that speaks to the soul. It is a proven pathway that allows the freedom to make a beautiful and successful piece of art.
Tina will share more exercises that are part of her own studio practice that sets her up for success, as she makes art for client’s homes as well as public spaces, that will get you in that “right brain” space so that you can paint freely as well.
Tina will share about how we can see in a different and deeper way.
She’ll also share some elements of art that every artist uses, some tricks of the trade, if you will.
It promises to be the most unique painting experience you’ll ever participate in and it’s for everyone. Whether you’ve been painting for a while or someone just beginning to explore art.
