Flow Time Energy Art Playdate
☆ Flow Time ~ Art Play Date ☆ I often greet the blank surface as both a playground and a temple, a place to meet with mystery, explore the wonders, play with possibility, sing, pray, celebrate and co-create with the life force that flows through all! In this offering, I share how I created the “Expanding with Flow” painting. It has nautilus and turquoise energies within it that feel so healthy and potent. It's been great for me to look back at the video since I want to make more paintings with similar vibes, ease, and flow. It's available so others can join me for "Flow Time" as well. You will see how to create the soft, subtle nuances and harmony along with the playful pops of bold vibrancy. I'm thinking of it as a virtual art playdate that can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere. This one is easy to fit in to a single short painting session. You will receive:
  • Downloadable Supply List with links (you must purchase supplies separately or substitute what you have)
  • Introduction with Studio Tour, Supply Tips, and Inspiration Ideas
  • 3 edited Process Videos with detailed Instruction (approximately 30 minutes)
  • Prompts for further Reflection, Symbolism, and Exploration
This is the kind of painting that doubts may have prevented me from showing or letting be in the past. It's rather raw and very playful, yet also deep in symbolism and vitality. Making boat loads of paintings has helped me to trust my touch and tastes (at least most of the time). So, for anyone struggling with self doubt, I hope you can keep trusting your own joy, liveliness, and love. We are all human and there is surely someone else out there that shares similar vibes and can value you and your creations. In the meantime, keep choosing and loving yourself. And, hopefully, have someone who will cheer you on if you need it! Suitable for all levels of experience from beginners to more experienced painters who want to loosen up with your creative process. Participants are welcome to watch the videos in whatever time works best for you in this self paced offering. You can also download all of the videos to save for lifetime access (so no worries if you need to come back to it later). You should receive a confirmation email with a link to download the access information immediately after checkout. Please check spam folders if you do not see it. I hope you will enjoy feeling in the flow!
