Workshop 2 – Line Language: Mark-Making for Calm + Flow (February 2026)
Focus: Presence & Rhythm — a mindful exploration of repetition, movement, and flow through line and pattern.
Description:
This session is an invitation to slow down and find rhythm in simple movement. We’ll explore how a single line can hold
emotion, energy, and calm. Through guided mark-making and playful repetition, you’ll experience how drawing without
expectation can steady the mind and bring you into the present moment. Each mark becomes a quiet conversation between
your hand and your breath.
What You’ll Experience:
• Gentle, meditative drawing exercises that promote calm and focus
• Freedom to explore pattern, shape, and texture without judgment
• A deepened awareness of how movement and art connect the body and mind
Techniques: repetitive mark-making, pattern development, neurographic drawing, simple ink and brush exploration.
Surface: sketchbook or mixed-media paper (9 × 12 inches recommended).
Materials: please bring your own sketch paper, pens, markers, or drawing tools of choice. A list of recommended materials
with links will be provided ahead of class to make preparation easier. You are also welcome to bring any additional tools
that inspire you, such as brushes, inks, or texture tools.
