Creative Bliss: A Week of Art in Nature
27 June—4 July with Lisa Shaw (from £295/€425)*
|
Spend a week in the beauty of the Pelion Peninsula, Greece, discovering and savoring the wonder of Aegean waters, mountains and lush flora and creating art from what you see and experience. When we draw closer to nature through art, we recover a lost sense of unity. This unity brings about rich, authentic, and graceful artistic expression and brings harmony to the rest of our life.
We will cultivate our inner sources of creativity by engaging the mind, body, and spirit and explore painting, drawing, and earth-based sculpture to encounter, reflect upon, and portray the ways of nature. We will learn how to create a dialogue with our inner muse, nourishing the spring of our creativity. During the week we will explore both individual and collaborative art processes rejuvenating our energy and connecting with the group.
Each day will have a healthy balance of creative sessions and leisure time for swimming, relaxing and exploring the local area. All participants, regardless of their prior experience, will find a deeper and more satisfying artistic expression and be drawn closer to nature.
