NEW! Intuitive Drawing & Spiritualist Art — A Workshop Inspired by Georgiana Houghton & Hilma af Klint, Saturday 9/19, 10:00am - 1:00pm with local artist Katie Croft
We are excited for Katie to share this brand new beautiful class offering with you!
In this workshop, we will explore the history of intuitive drawing and step into the quiet, luminous space where art comes from our bodies and perhaps even from a channel. Through intuitive drawing, we follow the thread once held by Spiritualist artists like Georgiana Houghton and Hilma af Klint—women who trusted the unseen, listened with their whole bodies, and allowed spirit, symbolism, and inner guidance to move through their hands.
We’ll begin with gentle grounding practices to soften the thinking mind and open the senses. From there, you’ll explore mark-making, gesture, and color as pathways for connection—letting lines wander, shapes emerge, and images arrive without forcing or planning. This is drawing as communion, drawing as listening, drawing as a way of remembering what moves beneath the surface of ordinary awareness.
Throughout the session, we’ll look to Houghton’s intricate, otherworldly abstractions and af Klint’s visionary geometries not as templates, but as invitations: to trust your intuition, to follow the energy of the moment, and to let your artwork become a living conversation with the subtle realms.
No artistic experience is needed.
You’ll leave with a series of intuitive works on paper, a deeper sense of your own creative channel, and a renewed connection to the lineage of artists who created in partnership with spirit.
Suggested materials to allow for full immersion into the action are crayons, pencils, colored pencils, dry pastels, markers. Felt tip drawing pens in different sizes are also an option. There are a variety of larger crayons and pencils that can be held in the palm of your hand like an egg. These may help to facilitate intuitive movement and authentic haptic perception. Avoid sticky materials for this class, such as oil pastels, as it will likely take you out of the meditation and interrupt fluid flow. Water colors can be an option.
Please bring with you:
your favorite drawing materials and any water colors you might like to use. Katie will provide a variety of materials to try and share with the group. She will also provide sketch paper to move through the drawings quickly and one sheet of water color paper for those who would like to try water color in a drawing.
