Prepare to let go and allow it to unfold as it may. I will guide YOU through some exercises before we start painting so that we can drop down and fully embrace our experience together. Some things for YOU consider: How do you want to feel coming to the workshop? Will you wear something that you LOVE? Perhaps a favorite piece of jewelry or a crystal tucked into your pocket. A talisman of sorts to accompany you on your adventure! When I take a minute to decide how I want to feel I usually end up feeling JOY in my heart because I made time for ME! We will play on the canvas with paints and stencils and create a fun time as YOU send love to YOUR own heart from beautiful, fabulous YOU through a “LOVE Note”. YOU will gather up all the LOVE, IMAGINATION, KINDNESS and paint it into YOUR canvas. REGISTRATION REQUIRED @https://www.artfuldreamers.com/offerings Kind Words: When was the last time you wrote a love note to yourself (if ever?). We wrote them, and then we painted over them, leaving the self-love and kindness to shine through. Just what I needed! N.S. No refunds | Class fee can apply to another class.
