A lively music sound track sets the pace for this fun and interactive workshop. We'll take you on a journey - filled with painting activities story telling, painting the outline of the Buddha's face while incorporating the topics of kindness and compassion at the workplace and in our lives. An "art show and tell" along with laughter, smiles and applause wraps up the session. 

 

Through a guided process, we'll create layers of colors freely on a 12" x 16" white blank canvas using acrylics as we weave in our own personal stories about kindness and compassion.  Each layer will show you a deeper layer of yourself.  We'll paint an outline of Buddha's face. Once we add a few more colors and layers, we'll start to see our Buddha come forward. 

 

No experience with drawing or painting is necessary. There is no such thing as a mistake.  This is not about learning to paint or creating a beautiful piece of art; it’s about the process - the journey and having fun.

​

Hang your painting in your office!  Create an inspirational wall at your workplace and feature all the paintings! It will be a reminder of the workshop and will be a talking point for many years to come.
