Mindfulness - various mediums


In Mindfulness group this week, we were given the exercise of using different mediums. We were to choose an object and materials we might not readily use to draw it. We had 3, 3 minute warm-ups using our non-dominant hand. Then 3, 20 minute time slots to come up with more variations.   I enjoyed this class as it just felt like play time. No pressure or expectations of myself. Using  the non-dominant is very freeing. Experiencing the different mediums more reasons to appreciate the swiftness, smoothness and beauty of watercolor (my medium of choice).
