A Contemplation Week Event: “Contemplative Drawing”

March 19, 11:00am – 12:00pm

Instructors:

Lauren Schiller, College of Communication and the Arts

Bonnie Sturm, College of Nursing

Explore drawing as a contemplative practice, a way to quiet the mind and lower stress. Learn how drawing can increase mindfulness and the ability to discover beauty in ordinary things. In this session, we will consider drawing as one way to enter into a state of flow and present moment awareness.

You will want to have the following available to participate:

-a smooth black pen that doesn’t smudge

For example, a .03 or .05 Micron pen, an Ultra Fine Point Sharpie or an extra fine rolling ball Pilot pen).

-A “thicker” pen, if possible

-2 pieces of paper

Good quality drawing paper is nice but printer paper will work too. It’s helpful to have the sheets in a pad or taped to a board if possible.
