What is intuitive painting? It means something a little different to everyone. In my classes, intuitive painting is simply painting in a meditative state without planning out your painting. You just go with the flow and paint without thinking or judging. There is no wrong and no mistakes. It is a great form of self expression. Intuitive painting can be used as a tool for healing. Intuitive painting isn’t about artistic skill or technique. Anyone can paint this way. Intuitive painting can be used along with guided meditations.
You don’t need any special paints or tools to enjoy intuitive painting. You can use any type of paint that you wish. Acrylic and water color paints are the easiest to work with and the cheapest to buy. You can even use water color sets meant for children. Finger paints are also great. Some adults may have a hard time getting their hands dirty, but your inner child will love it. The thing most people find difficult about intuitive painting is turning off their inner critic.
Many of my clients find that intuitive painting helps them to heal emotional scars and overcome obstacles. I think this is because they are expressing emotions that they may have been hiding or ignoring. Intuitive painting can bring things to light and it is just plain fun. If you have never tried intuitive painting or any kind of painting give it a shot. It is fun and relaxing. You never know what you may discover about yourself.
For in person workshops, I bring all the supplies and you bring an opened mind and heart. These workshops are available for groups and individuals. For those that live outside of my area, we may be able to plan a wonderful retreat. Check out the teleclasses on the Work With Me page.
