Letting the Hand Lead
Roxanne Glaser, also known as SuperDoodleGirl, will lead us
with a fun artistic exercise for the morning program. This one-hour, free
program introduces automatic drawing and lettering as a simple, repeatable
daily practice. Using examples from 100 Days of Zen to show how small,
consistent mark-making sessions can naturally evolve over time.
Working
with black pens or markers on their own paper, participants will explore
movement-based prompts that encourage calligraphic and expressive marks without
planning or judgment. The emphasis is on showing up, noticing change, and
building trust with the hand, rather than creating finished work.
The
100-day work is shared as a container for this practice— illustrating rhythm,
variation, and growth through repetition — not as an expectation or commitment.
Participants
leave with:
· A
clear understanding of how a daily practice can look
and feel
· Low-pressure
ideas they can return to anytime
· Permission
to begin again each day
Supplies
(participants bring):
·
Black
pens and/or markers
·
Their
own paper or journal
If you
want to add color to your art, plan to stay for the afternoon workshop from 1-4
pm. Details below.
Flow &
Flourish: A Meditative Journaling Practice
Experience a meditative
journaling practice that weaves calligraphic marks, watercolor, and intuitive
drawing. In this immersive workshop, you’ll move from blank page to finished
work, responding to the page and letting the process unfold naturally.
In this extended
workshop after the meeting from 1 to 4 pm, participants explore Creative
Meditative Flow in depth — beginning with automatic, calligraphic mark-making
and expanding into layered color, line, and response. Guidance unfolds slowly,
supporting curiosity and presence rather than performance.
The $25 session ($35 for non members) concludes by folding the completed work into a meander (accordion) book,
transforming the piece into a tactile, unfolding journal object.
Roxanne will provide
the paper. Bring
some of your favorite supplies and get ready to play! Suzi Ickles will take sign-ups and payment at the
morning meeting.
