Classes
Mandala Creating
with Marilyn
Join us for an inspiring and relaxing journey into the world of Mandalas. This workshop is all about discovery, creativity, and self-expression. In this volunteer-based community gathering, we will delve into the basics of Mandalas - intricate geometric designs that represent the universe in Hindu and Buddhist symbolism, but have been embraced globally for their beauty and meditative creation process. Under Marilyn's experienced guidance, we will practice some exercises to hone our understanding and techniques of Mandala art. Each participant will be encouraged to express themselves freely, exploring personal creativity through a variety of mediums. We will begin with drawing smaller Mandalas using pencils and markers, focusing on the therapeutic process of pattern-making. Get ready to transform a blank canvas into a colourful or black-and-white mini universe of your own creation. As we gain confidence and skill, we'll move onto larger pieces, covering advanced design techniques and enriching our palette with watercolours and acrylics. Whether you've always admired the mesmerising allure of golden Mandalas, are intrigued by the vibrancy of colourful ones, or favor the purity of black and white designs, this workshop offers a space for you to explore all these styles and more. Join us to unwind, connect with your inner artist, and create some Mandalamagic together!
