Connecting with Nature – Journaling and Mindfulness Workshop
Dive into the serene world of mindfulness through our Connecting with Nature – Journaling and Mindfulness Workshop. This session is designed to help you foster a deeper connection with the natural world through the reflective practices of journaling and mindfulness. During the workshop, you'll be guided through a series of exercises aimed at enhancing your observation skills, sparking creativity, and promoting a sense of peace and presence.
Materials needed for this immersive experience include a sketchbook and pencils to capture your thoughts and the beauty that surrounds you. Although only the basics are required, participants are encouraged to bring conte, watercolours, gouache, mixed media, and reference photos to add a splash of color and texture to their journal entries. Whether you're a seasoned artist or a beginner looking to explore your inner world, this workshop offers a space to relax, reflect, and create.
Materials: sketchbook, pencils.
Optional Materials: erasers, fine liners or ink pens, a set of brushes, watercolour, gouache, water, mixed media, portable chair or mat if you’re sitting outside in the garden for the session or alternatively either potted plants or reference photos of some flowers or botanicals will do as well.

About the Facilitator:
As the Artist behind Lina's Art, I am deeply grateful for the support and engagement that has turned this passion into a thriving community. Your encouragement fuels my creative exploration and has been instrumental in the growth of this small business. I am constantly inspired by the connections we've made through my work, as each piece finds a place in your hearts and homes.
My artistic journey is deeply rooted in the delicate beauty of watercolours, with a special focus on botanicals and the serene landscapes of Canada. These subjects are not just themes in my art; they are conversations with nature and expressions of the world's intrinsic beauty. Every piece is an invitation to pause, reflect, and find joy in the details.
