CONTEMPLATIVE DRAWING
learn the art of perception, stillness, contemplation, and observation
OPEN TO ALL LEVELS
The act of drawing asks us to shift our perception, to rewrite our vision of reality, seeing the world as it is rather than as we believe it to be.
Drawing is a deeply intimate process; it allows us to slow down, and enter the depth of the spaces, faces, and places around us, and most importantly - within us.
Contemplative Drawing is designed to give you all the foundational tools in craft, mindset, history, and philosophy to develop a flourishing drawing practice.

are an artist or creative seeking to reconnect to your practice in an illuminated way
