WELCOME!
Mindful Making
with Nature

Join us for a fun craft where we make art with nature. We will be creating colorful cards and learning a special monoprinting technique. Using Geli plates and flora we will create unique pieces of art with nature's imprints. It's a great self care tool to hold nature in our hands and make art with it. This workshop is for everyone looking to connect with the outdoors and make something beautiful. Studies have shown that spending time outside is good for the mind and body. It can lower stress, blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart disease and strokes, and improve mental health. We all need some fresh air and the opportunity to make with our hands.

IN THIS WORKSHOP, WE WILL:

  • learn how to create patterns with real leaves

  • play with color mixing

  • practice how to mix and roll ink onto your geli plate

  • pull prints and cards from your geli plates

I created two videos for our upcoming workshop. The first is an overview and discussion about the art workshop and nature walk. Hopefully it can give some insights and help you prepare. The second shows more details about the set up for our session. I look forward to meeting all of you!

Best, Agnes

 
 
 
 
“We have designed this creative experience to connect with ourselves and our team through nature. Making art with nature brings greater perception, presence and peace into our lives. Nature printing is a mindful practice that helps us live in the present and appreciate the beauty found all around us.”
