Art Classes - still looking for a time ....


Opening a door to a possibility, an opportunity for participation: Let's have some fun growing our souls :) - please see this letter by Kurt Vonnegut to shed some light on this or the post on Art makes your Soul grow


I hope you could make it  - and continue to explore
For the moment, and the next few weeks, you will still only need a pencil, a sharpener and paper. There is much magic to emerge with just those simple tools.

It seems that for me it is time to open up the part of Being that grows by doing art. Our online art class on Easter Friday worked well enough. I reviewed the archive and can see where I can make some improvements for the next class.
This window is open - I hope you will join in.

You are welcome and  invited to come to this class and  grow your soul some more.

There is an aspect to this class that is aligned with group work. It takes a little team to actually make it possible to transmit this online - and it takes YOU to be there to make this class something I can't find the right works for atm. A group adventure aligned with the work we are doing.
Real roup work is the hardest thing  to do ....say someone  (me) who really is a hermit at heart.

Here are some glimpses of  a workshop I am listening to online as I am writing: E.J. Gold on another project: "You have to learn to cooperate, work with the process ..... participate. ..... This is a form of investment - and there is benefit for you ...."  Sounds good and true.

Namaste
and have a great day

Art makes your soul grow

The other day I saw a facebook share, a response letter of Kurt Vonnegut (see it here) to high School students - I found his words very  inspiring. It reminded me  of a quote I read by E.J. Gold, and this is probably paraphrased a little: "The purpose of a human being anywhere at any time is to grow a soul".

I don't consider myself an "artist" - and when you are surrounded by many good ones - even less so. However, there is something about doing art (and music) that seems to be invaluable to the Self...and I always feel it was a good thing to have done it when I take the time.

So keep coming back to it, as this coming Easter Friday, 2 days from now from 10 am to 12 noon.:

There is a free art class - "Pencil Magic"  on gorebaggtv - bring your children and family and friends - Easter Friday, April 18, 10 am PST till noon.

Where? here - >>>> gorebaggtv http://www.justin.tv/gorebaggtv
All the materials you need you probably already have in the house:
  • some pieces of paper, 
  • a soft pencil 
  • and a pencil sharpener.
A number 9B pencil is best - and there is still time to get one ...or several :) it saves on the sharpening interruptions.

Looking forward to doing some Art again with you - to becoming a little more - to grow our soul.

This class draws on the material presented in the DRAW GOOD NOW series.

Here is a fun video of student works the first time - House and Tree. (we won't be doing THAT one on Friday)
