Art of Letting Go: Painting with Powder Paints and Leaves at L'Étoile Studio
See event details

A event held at L'Étoile Studio on Friday 21st November. The event starts at 18:00.


Together we will tune into the energy of late autumn and take some inspiration from trees that let go of their old leaves with ease and trust. Through the creative process you will be invited to reflect on what you are ready to release this year: perhaps thought patterns, unhealthy habits, non-functioning relationships or old image of self.

We will use an easy and playful technique: Brusho Powder paint in combination with white crayons. There will be an option to add watercolours as well. Leaves gathered from various trees will be part of our creative process.

At the end of the workshop, you will have at least two paintings: one individually made reflecting your personal process of letting go and one collectively made in a collective exercise in which we will practise art of letting go of control, trusting the process and opening up space for the unknown.
