Yoga Painting Workshop
When: 6 October, 2007
Where: Mountainyoga's Fragrant Hill Centre
by Jaco Anicic
Introduction
Awakening
the Creative is a journey into the wild territory of painting directly
from intuition, an unpredictable venture into color, form, and image where
no rules apply. The potential is to tap into an extraordinary resource:
the vibrant, driving force of your own creative spirit.
In
this workshop, everyone is a beginner; people from all levels of experience
are welcome, including those who have never picked up a paintbrush.
We are given the environment, methods, facilitation, and peer connections
with which to do in-depth self-exploration that can lead to pivotal
insights for generating effective change. The goal is free expression,
with the emphasis on the creative process rather than on technique or
expertise. In the end, what really matters is that we have embarked
on the greatest of all human journeys - embracing our own path and confidently
following it. Yoga asana, pranayama and medition suitable for any level
will be designed into the schedule, a methodology towards the same goal
- awakening the creative.
All painting materials including paper,ink,drawing board,water color, acrylic color will be provided by Mountainyoga.
In the morning, we will have a Body Mind Awareness Yoga session with Jaco. It is an integration of Taiji, Buddhist mindfulness breathing meditation based on Chinese Zen and Yoga in its classical India form and its Japanese form called OKI that I designed altogether to suit the urban people who are dealing with lot of stress.
In the afternoon, a free abstract painting workshop will be followed by an other workshop hosted by Jaco on Painting Appreciation to get into the heart of the matter about the works of art in a relaxed way. Jaco will be showing DVD introducing master pieces of the Western Art Collections.
After dinner there will be a Kirtan/chanting session before shuttle head back to downtown.
