Dear Creative Friend, This week in Open Studio and Bookmaking, we played with art materials and discovered new things about ourselves and each other. The current theme of play has revealed all sorts of creative discoveries. It is exciting to see what happens when we allow ourselves to freely explore. I found an image I made several years ago that expresses my mission and still resonates as true. I wrote then, "Deep Play, deep healing, embracing (the) wholeness of who you are". This is what we do. Offer play, expression, witnessing, and an invitation to be your whole, unique, authentic self. We are so happy to be doing this work with you!
Registration is NOW OPEN for Mindful Art Play Days! I (Tamara) will be leading a LIVE
5 day Mindful Art Play Days event at the end of July! |
| For 1 hour every day I will show you how to be intentionally playful, while using expressive arts as a tool for mindfulness.
😄 Each session will follow a theme & we'll use simple visual art materials and expressive arts practices (gentle movement, visual arts & writing) to relax and have fun! 🎨 |
We will explore: 💠 Dripping 💠 Doodling 💠 Resisting 💠 Bubbling 💠 Connecting 🗓 Mindful Art Play Days starts July 22 and goes through July 26. Monday - Friday 10:00-11:00am EDT On Facebook Live |
And the best part is...it's only $10 for all 5 days! For just $10 you'll receive an all-access pass to FIVE live painting sessions; a supply guide; a workbook; a private Facebook community; drawing templates; and more! All sessions will be recorded, so if you can't make the times you can still view
the lessons in the Facebook group for a few more weeks. Pass the word and share with your friends. I am hoping that many people will join me for some art play dates! |

Also, today is the last day of our Summer Solstice Sale. Even if you don't plan to take something right away, we recommend getting the self-study courses now so you can save them for later! For more information on the sale, scroll down to the self-study section of the newsletter. We also have a few new workshops coming up this summer! Take a look below at the "Save the Date" section for all upcoming classes & events! One of the self-study courses
"Art as a Healing Practice" has been fully updated in the last year by Kathleen. Her Art as a Healing Practice process is amazing. So many have shared that it changed their lives forever and helped them heal in ways that they did not expect. You can purchase it as a gift for someone else (or you). Our hope is to help as many people as we can to experience this powerfully healing
work.
See you in the circle soon. With gratitude, Tamara, Kathleen, and the Expressive Arts Florida Team
