TIP OF THE MONTH

October is here and showing us clear bursts of Autumn. We witness the gorgeous transformations that nature makes when we look at the bursting foliage around us. We see it in colors, textures and shape. We feel it in the moist air, wet earth, breeze and changing temperatures. At least here in the northern hemisphere. . .

Hand in hand with transformations of this season brings in similarities with state of mind. Last month was about clearing of space, and this month is about taking in the dimensions of this new space. Come and join on the transformational journey as I infuse three dimensions into everything that I do.  Of course you are familiar with my interactive sculpture projects. Now I am taking it further and sprinkling in sculpture into workshops at Atelier Molenpad. This means that we now use clay and cardboard in team offsites, evening workshops, and of course the Kidzartlab. Curious? Book a session! In the Kidzartlab it is quite natural to shift quickly between one and the other.

Please do let these ideas extend permission to experiment with adding dimensions to your art.
