Unleash your creativity and deepen your connection with nature through this enchanting Earth Mandala Workshop. Join us for a memorable experience where parents and children come together to create beautiful mandalas using materials from the garden, forging lasting memories and strengthening the bonds of love and creativity.
This workshop is open to individuals of all artistic levels, from beginners to experienced artists. No prior artistic experience is necessary—just an open mind and a willingness to explore the depths of your creativity. Children must be 6 years or older. Adults without children are also welcome to join, bring a friend or partner and enjoy creating together.
What to Expect:
The workshop begins with a moment of tranquility as we guide you through a short meditation, helping you connect with the serene energy of nature. You and your child will be inspired by the natural elements around you, collecting petals, leaves, twigs, and pebbles from the garden to use in your mandala creation.
Introduction to the captivating world of mandalas, learn about their cultural and spiritual significance. You’ll also learn about symmetry, patterns, and color choices, laying the foundation for your unique mandala creation.
As you delve into the creative process, you’ll work side by side, blending your individual visions and harmonizing your artistic expressions. I’ll provide guidance and support, encouraging exploration and experimentation to create a balanced and visually captivating mandala.
During the reflective session, you’ll have the opportunity to share your thoughts, emotions, and insights with other participants, fostering open communication and deepening the connection between parent and child. It’s a chance to celebrate your creations, appreciate each other’s perspectives, and revel in the joy of your shared experience.

About your Guide:
Hi, my name is Birte. As an intuitive artist, I have found that when we let go of our preconceived ideas and allow our creativity to flow freely, we often uncover hidden parts of ourselves and tap into a deeper level of authenticity.
“I endeavour to create a fertile space for creative expression with a demonstration of art making, music and one-on-one instruction as needed.” – Birte

About the Process
The Spirit&Heart Art guided journey is an intuitive art process, that offers you a space in which you can just be. It allows you to start a conversation with your inner being. The process can be light and playful, sometimes meditative or deeply moving and powerful. As the space opens up and expands, you connect to your intuition and are able to realize where your journey might lead you.
“The goal is not to create a work of art but to use the process of creation and art-making, as a way to begin a conversation with yourself”.
Throughout the 3-hour workshop, I will guide you through a series of mindfulness and creative exercises, as you learn to connect with and express your creative energy. We will seek to engage both sides of the brain and invite in mistakes, intuition, and spontaneity while exploring colour, texture, design, risk, and soul. You will be given time for experimentation with new tools, mediums and techniques.
When you make art, you let a creative life-force energy move through you. This workshop offers you a safe space to explore your unique creative energy. You’ll learn how to access your true soul’s expression and cultivate the courage and confidence to express yourself fully. As you create, your own inner wisdom is illuminated and your path becomes clear.
The Spirit & Heart Art Journey is designed for people from all disciplines and skill levels. All you need is the desire to connect with your creative spirit and your unique vision, and the courage to express yourself.
