ESSENTIAL DRAWING

Each module weaves together guided meditation, intuitive movement, personal storytelling, and creative exploration. You’ll draw from life and from memory, work with shadow and transformation, and attune to the quiet presence of flowers, landscapes, and your own inner gaze.

Whether you are new to drawing or returning after time away, this course invites you into a deeper kind of seeing—where line, color, and gesture become languages of truth, feeling, and awe.

Practices include:

• Self-portrait through energy and sensation

• Drawing in nature and from memory as a way to grow and explore your imagination

• Shadow and polarity work

• Still life as teacher of presence

• Somatic meditations and art rituals to awaken the body and care for the creative force as it awakens

• Simple, soulful materials: pencil, charcoal, watercolor, scissors, glue

• uncovering and bringing awareness to the artist’s wound

  
  
  

This is a space for slowing down. For reclaiming your own rhythms of expression. For remembering Soul and wholeness.

Essential Drawing invites you to explore creativity through the lens of meditation and inner awareness. Designed with sensitivity and sustainability in mind, this course supports individuals and creatives in navigating the emotional and energetic depths that can arise in the creative process. You’ll be guided to work gently with your energy, with practices that help you recognize when to engage, when to rest, and how to stay rooted in your own rhythm. This is a space to create not from urgency, but from a grounded, embodied flow that nourishes both your art and your well-being.
