Join mindfulness artist Vicky McPhearson on this half day workshop to paint a ring dish using the mandala dot work technique.

In this workshop you will explore mindfulness through mandala painting onto a 15cm ring dish. The session encourages calm, focus and self-expression as you learn simple dotting and pattern techniques to create your own unique designs. Vicky will guide you through each step with clear demonstrations, and personal attention given to each crafter to ensure you have a personal craft experience that leaves you uplifted and calm.

The ring dish will be painted in a black basecoat. You will paint patterns using mandala dotting techniques. Dot mandala art uses colour, repetition, symmetry and creativity which enhances wellbeing and concentration.

You will leave the workshop with a finished painted ring dish that reflects your creativity and have a sense of mindful accomplishment. ..
