Mindful Drawing with Sanna Florence

Mindful drawing is a practice that blends creativity with calm. It focuses on patterns, lines, shapes, and colours, allowing you to express yourself without rules or pressure. Unlike traditional drawing, mindful drawing is atelic—it’s not about the finished artwork but the joy and peace to be found in the process. In this wonderful workshop, Sanna will guide you through base techniques, patterns, and methods of mindful drawing. By the end of the session, you’ll have your unique creation and the skills to continue reaping the benefits of this beautifully calming practice.
