Meditation & Watercolour
A Seven-Week Mindful Painting Series
Slow down, observe, and explore the relationship between meditation and the creative process in this seven-week beginner-friendly watercolour series.
Each Monday evening begins with a guided meditation designed to help settle the mind, heighten awareness, and bring greater attention to the act of seeing. From there, we move into watercolour—exploring colour, movement, transparency, composition, and the wonderfully unpredictable relationship between water and pigment.
Throughout the series, you’ll be introduced to foundational watercolour techniques while also experimenting with a more intuitive approach to painting. Rather than focusing solely on creating a finished or “perfect” image, we’ll consider what happens when we become more attentive to the process itself: the movement of the brush, the flow of water, our responses to colour, and the choices we make along the way.
Some evenings may begin with a visual prompt, object, natural material, or idea to observe; others may invite a more abstract or expressive response. Guided exercises will gradually give way to greater independence as you become more comfortable with both the materials and your own creative instincts.
No previous experience with meditation or watercolour is required. This class is designed for anyone curious about painting, mindfulness, or simply finding a quieter and more intentional way to make art.
