From connecting with community to discovering your unique way of
creating, this book explores the rich rewards of making art mindfully.
Art in all its beautiful forms and mediums is a powerful form of
expression and meditation. In Mindful Thoughts for Artists, Georgina
Hooper illustrates how the act of painting allows us to access the calm
that dwells within, and acts as a powerful catalyst for pleasure,
acceptance and growth.
Awash with colorful splashings of art history, and peppered with the
rich teachings of the Ch'an Buddhists, this lovingly-crafted little
book explores how this meditative medium helps us to embrace ourselves
in all our different hues.
Appealing to all artists, this curated collection of 25 reflections
encourages creators to live in the moment, to observe the beauty in
everything, and above all, to ensure that the creative process is driven
by love and enjoyment.
From focussing on the process not the product, to learning to
see by slowing down and devoting time to our surroundings, this book
will take you on a journey both in your art and in yourself, leading to
a happier, creatively free and more mindful self!
