Painting with Presence

What does this term mean?

If we allow time at the beginning of an art session to connect to ourselves each time we begin a drawing, take a photo or stand in front of a canvas, and before laying down each new layer of paint, the painting will carry that quality of connection for you and other viewers to feel.
There is a beauty in that moment of stillness, and it is as easy as feeling your feet or breathing gently.
Could there be a way of expressing ourselves that presents playfulness, love and harmony when we leave emotions out of the activity?

Painting with Presence presents some opportunities to make a fresh start, to discover how to approach a painting practice that supports and expands your creative expression. It is not always about having to have a lot more knowledge, or learning new techniques, but painting what you love, and finding your own way which feels true for you.

We all have our unique way of expressing, and with art we are always experimenting and learning new ways of expressing our ideas. Bernadette offers
 creative support to guide and refresh your art practice.
