Artist Neha Modi always struggled with meditation, so she found a creative way to turn off her "monkey mind" instead: drawing meditative patterns. While she introduced this practice in a previous Skillshare class, in this Live Encore—recorded using Zoom and featuring participation from the Skillshare community—she introduces three new ideas for finding pattern inspiration in the natural world and answers common questions about how to integrate this unique take on mindfulness into your own life.
As you spend 45 minutes drawing alongside Neha, she'll encourage you to:
Let go of expectations about how your drawing should look and instead celebrate how perfectly imperfect nature isEnjoy how repetitive drawings can take you into the flow state and give you a creative breakAdapt this practice to your own needs and habits
By the end of class, you should have a pattern drawing or two and a more relaxed state of mind. It's perfect for artists of any level and all you need to participate is a pen and paper (or drawing materials of your choice). Light a candle, put on some soothing music, and get ready to draw with Neha!
