An introduction to acrylic painting workshop that emphasizes the use of painting as a tool for mindfulness by centring one’s focus on working with the paint in the present moment.

In the workshop, Athena calls on her over 20 years of experience in painting and teaches participants the basics of tracing a design onto a canvas, applying paint and blending colours. This method of working encourages participants to push past the hurdle of the blank canvas, allowing them to fully enjoy the benefits of experiencing a painting practice.
