“There is a difference between teaching someone how to make drawings and teaching someone how to be an artist. While helping kids learn to draw, I want to simultaneously help them uncover and gain a working knowledge of the internal landscape that makes them unique, fostering confidence in that inner world as a guiding artistic vision.”— Ian Ingram

$120.00

Blind Contours are drawings made while looking only at the object, never at the paper. This is the most important skill for drawing what one sees AND it is a beautiful and fun experience of Samatha meditation or “single pointed focus”. Join me to start your week with engagement of calm mind and active beauty. I have found meditation so helpful in quieting the state of panic we have come to see as a normal 21st century urban life.
