Mindful art

with me, Artist-in-Residence at Kingley Vale

Benefits
Physical and mental benefit of walking in nature and sketching

Re-connect with the natural world

Slow the pace of life

Enjoy the present moment

Calm the mind and body

Totally immersive experience

Record the moment with art

If people connect with nature they are more likely to take care of it and re-visit it.

The aim of the day
To totally immerse yourself in your surroundings, clear the mind of clutter and anxiety and enjoy the moment. Slow down, connect with nature and enjoy the creativity of sketching. You don't need any previous experience or skill just a willingness to create freely. The combination of walking and sketching is a natural way to practice mindfulness.
