Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure in joining one of Nury Barros workshop.
Such an amazing day & so much fun. Nury is one of the most patient kindest and hugely positive people I know within my circle. So knew if going to be beginner this was the class!! If ever get a chance to do her workshops (very hard to get into) u will love it.
As most know, art n colour speak within for me. But other than stickmen, the gift of drawing not really my thing. so this workshop was completely out of my comfort zone.
So not only did I just have an amazing day with great people, it also brought valuable reflection. A reminder of how my yoga students may feel at times when guiding them to ‘connect’ within, to flow, trust the movement/process.. as this is second nature to me & comes so easily.
Art… not so natural.. Hearing Nury’s words.. similar to mine.. but in totally different setting. ‘trust the process’, let it flow, feel the experience.. all foreign to me with a paintbrush.
It wasn’t just about painting, it was also about presence, vulnerability and finding you in a flow.
Such an awesome reminder that stepping out of our comfort zones & being a ‘beginner’ again is so good for the soul.
And look at the colour !! X
