"Discover Yourself Through Art" Live in person , Artist led workshop
Come out and meet new people, and paint, color, and express yourself, with artist Kathy Poitras for this live in-person artist-led interactive exercise
Artists can evoke emotion and express higher states of being, I believe each one of us is an artist, to some degree. Some have let their artistic self-shine, and some have it buried within themselves. My passion is creating art with all sorts of media and helping people discover their own inner artist providing a safe and nonjudgmental space to help urge that artist to the surface. This workshop is about you!
This workshop is inspired by a series of spiritual paintings Kathy created. based on the concept of the eight distinct areas of life.
These spiritual painting were inspired by the booklet "The Dynamics of Existence" from "The Scientology Handbook" and the book "The Way To Happiness" by L Ron Hubbard." Kathy Poitras
You will create your own images to express each section of the template as it reflects your own life. No artistic talent is required, but artists are more than welcome!
Date and Time: Sunday Nov 24th. 10:00 AM -12:00 PM
Location:
The Church of Scientology Vancouver BC

Here are testimonials from a previous similar exercise.
"I had an amazing time! This Meetup helped me to realize that sometimes I forget some of my dynamics and I would like to keep them in balance. For sure this exercise made me think a lot! There is freedom to express myself in this workshop through painting and drawing. " Mayra
"I felt that I entered the "rabbit hole" in the 2 hours. It was a brand-new world for me, and incredibly, I was fully devoted to following the instructions and enjoying it so much to express things that popped into my head. I have never done this before. Thanks so much for giving me the opportunity."
All are welcome to join us!
Cheers,
Kathy

This is the second time I participated in Kathy;s workshop. As always, it has been the most beautiful event since I have been in Vancouver. I highly recommend Kathy;s course which you can successfully regulate emotions in an artistic way. Also, you will know your SELF deeply. Re-identiification of self is not difficult in Kathy's space!! Wonderfuil Kathy!
Happiness is gathering together , Finding the people in the same spiritual level. Happiness is leaving a room with a nice feeling after creating your artwork. Kindness is the sharing heart of people who gift thier soul, who share their core emotions to the others and wish to live in a better workd peacefully. Dear Kathy, This is how you make these moments.Thank you so much. You give us this opportunity generously.
Various materials and guides were presented. So I was able to follw them comfortably.
It was good to be able to express feeling about various topics. I'll read the book carefully over, when Iget home. It was a little disappointing that I didn't have enough time to draw. But the experience was good. Thanks for this evening.
I really enjoyed this workshop. Learned a lot of new concepts about life through the eight dynamics. Also converting it into art was so fun. Takes a bit of thinking but thanks for some examples . Cathy, you did great on explaining these!
