Healing Through Art-Landscape Painting
Friday December 13, 2024 12:30pm - 2:45pm PST
When did you first tell yourself "I can't" or " I am not an artist", ...and then from this point onward stopped trying. Feeding oneself messages of negativity can leave one with feelings of inadequacy, or the inability to accomplish a goal. Art can be very therapeutic, for there are no mistakes in art; it is all a matter, of the manner in which information is individually processed and applied. It is educational, as well as a way of expressing ability, feelings, spirituality, or wonder. Come enjoy this art workshop to explore your creativity!

¿Cuándo te dijiste primero a ti mismo "no puedo" o "no soy un artista", ...y luego a partir de este punto en adelante dejó de intentarlo. Alimentarse con mensajes de negatividad puede dejar a uno con sentimientos de insuficiencia, o la incapacidad de lograr una meta. El arte puede ser muy terapéutico, porque no hay errores en el arte; todo es una cuestión, de la manera en que la información se procesa y aplica individualmente. Es educativo, así como una forma de expresar capacidad, sentimientos, espiritualidad o maravilla. ¡Venga a disfrutar de este taller de arte para explorar su creatividad! La sesión es en inglés pero el arte trasciende el idioma.
