Register for "Painting With Words" Dabbler
All art is an expression of what we are feeling, what is important to us, what we believe is true. Just as all life is connected, I believe all art is connected. In other words, those feelings, our personal truth, can be expressed in words, in music, in sculpture or in a painting.

You do not have to be a poet, but if you have a poem you have written, you are welcome to bring it. The first hour will be spent talking about poetry and writing our poem. You do not have to write a masterpiece, or paint a masterpiece. The morning is about having fun and trying something new. And perhaps learning to experience writing and painting in a new way. To reach deep and see what is at the heart of that poem, or that painting.
We are going to play with this idea. We will write a poem and then see if we can express what the poem says to us in shapes and color, mood and composition. And vice/versa. We will take a painting and try to express its emotions in words. |
The last half-hour we will share what we have done.
What to Bring:
