Intuitive Painting Intensive Retreat:
A healing and transforming weekend
Enjoy a whole compact weekend of using your intuition and immersing yourself in painting. This workshop was initially offered over a course of 9 weeks, but I am offering it over a compact weekend in order to create a more intense awakening of your potential. By connecting painting with Intuition, our memories, animals, and the goddess, we awaken an instinctive nature that has been waiting to emerge. We will be using acrylic paints throughout this journey.
Intuition is the ability of tapping into the essence of who you are and connecting to your authentic self. This workshop is a means to explore your innate nature, where you’ll unfold through the creative process.
This workshop is divided into three parts:
The first part, called “Remembering Me,” is a memory exercise where we travel back as early as we can in our lives and recall who we were so early on. Many people who’ve taken this workshop access emotions of elation (and sometimes painful memories too but you won’t stay there). This first part of the workshop is a healing and a remembering of who we are and accessing a joy that comes with retrieving all of you.
The second part of the workshop moves into a concept called “Animal Instincts.” Animals hold for us the instinctual qualities of wildness and power. It’s here where we learn about the innate powers and abilities of the animal kingdom. By focusing on animals that we attribute as having some connection to who we are and by expressing, through painting, our own animal instincts, we’ll actually connect to our own powers of instinct.
The third part of the workshop is called “The Goddess Within.” This part enters the female archetype through understanding and then painting the goddess. The female archetype holds for us secret identities of the hidden self. By learning about archetypes told through mythology and the goddess, we open up new aspects of our own goddess within.
The purpose of this four-part workshop is to use painting as a means to open up avenues of growth and self-development through painting. Intuition through art making is a process that many current artists adhere to as a way to connect to a deeper part of the self. Therefore this workshop has an aspect of personal growth, it also develops a personal artistic style, that would only come from this kind of immersion. This 3-day intensive workshop is for people at any level of artistic development.
