This workshop will focus on making with intention. I normally provide space to learn techniques and give freedom for each to create as one feels prompted. However, I am wanting to explore deeper connection and have created this guided workshop that still gives a multitude of techniques but with the intention that together we will all create a mandala. This sacred symbol will become a mark for inspiration as you dive into your inner voice. I have been creating mandala work for many years and it is always very satisfying. I will share not only techniques to use but tips and tricks that I implement in my own work.
