Join us for a fun and creative morning at the beautiful Hawkesbury EarthCare Centre in Richmond, NSW, Australia. Immerse yourself in the wonders of nature as you learn the art of sketching using pencil and paper. This workshop is perfect for art enthusiasts of all skill levels.
Drawing is like learning or practising a new language. Exercising your creativity can help you express complex thoughts or emotions that you may not be able to find the words for. Developing this visual language helps you better understand yourself and your own personal thoughts, feelings, and desires. Through this, it may also help benefit the way you communicate with the world around you.
Drawing is an act of meditation and promotes mindfulness Taking the time to focus on a sketch allows you to be more mindful of the world around you. An appreciation of beauty and truth, self inquiry through perceiving, it can help you find a sense of balance in your day to day life.
