Intuitive Lines and Layers – Meditative Painting Workshop with Lisa Petsu
Sunday May 11, 3 – 6 pm – great Mother’s Day activity for the family!
Join us for this 3 hour mini-retreat where participants will integrate yogic mindfulness practices and mixed media painting. It will be an immersive art making experience where you can tap into your creative spirit and let it flow.
Artists will create a medium to large scale abstract layered painting on paper that reflects the mind, spirit and body.
The Process:
- The first layer – Mind: ceremonial cacao will be used to aid in meditation and heart opening as artists use intuitive writing ad affirmations as the first layer on the surface of the work.
- The second layer – Spirit: Sound bowls will be played to clear energetic channels. While receiving sound healing, artists will create a layer of intuitive line using a wax/ oil resist technique.
- The third layer – Body: Gentle yoga and movement will help artists connect to their body as water-based paint is used to add a layer of embodied color to the surface of the work.
- The fourth layer – Integration: closiing practices will allow artists extra time to play with additional materials and add layers to their creation.
A closing meditaion, sound healing and group discussion will seal the creative experience.
Take aways:
- The healing experience of a mind/ body retreat.
- Meditative painting techniques that can be reproduced in your home or studio for future creative projects.
- A medium to large scale painting on paper that is a one-of-a-kind and can be displayed in your home. (framing not included)
This will be an afternoon of soothing creative flow! Open to all ages and skill levels. No prior experience is necessary. The price includes all materials and cacao.

Facilitated by Lisa Petsu – art educator and artist
Lisa brings a wealth of skill and an abundance of passion for artmaking. She is an accomplished artist who exhibits regularly in numerous galleries, and has an art educator for many years. “My work is inspired by the edge between the formal art space of galleries and the domestic architecture of personal life. I cultivate a spiritual connection to my materials and am interested in the accumulation of color, time, emotion and flashes of imperfect beauty on the canvas.” Read more about her on her website.
