SUMMARY:Drawing as Meditation
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n\n\nDrawing as Meditation\nLed by Juan Sebastian Restrepo \n$25\nAll Materials Provided\nThis beginner-friendly workshop introduces drawing as a calming\, meditative practice — a way to slow down\, breathe\, and reconnect with the present moment through mark-making. Using simple materials like pencils\, charcoal\, and ink\, participants will explore repetitive\, intuitive drawing exercises designed to reduce stress and enhance focus. There’s no pressure to create a “finished” piece — the goal is to experience the act of drawing as mindfulness and self-care. \nThis session will introduce drawing as a meditative and grounding practice rather than a technical skill. Participants will be guided through slow\, intentional mark-making exercises designed to quiet the mind and encourage self-reflection. Emphasis is placed on process over product\, helping students reconnect with creativity in a gentle\, accessible way. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Instructor: \nJuan Sebastian Restrepo is a visual artist based in Florida. He received an MFA in Painting from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville and a BFA in Painting from Pratt Institute. Working across drawing\, painting\, and video\, his practice explores perception\, memory\, attention\, and the emotional logic of everyday life\, often blending abstraction and figuration through playful\, diaristic imagery. Restrepo has presented solo exhibitions in Miami\, including projects at the Art and Culture Center/Hollywood and [NAME] Publications\, and has participated in group exhibitions across the United States and internationally\, including in London. His work has been exhibited at venues such as the Coral Springs Museum of Art\, 1310 Gallery\, and Arts on Douglas\, and has been featured in publications including Cultured Magazine\, saw palm\, Stonecoast Review\, and Inlandia Journal. In addition to his studio practice\, Restrepo is an experienced educator who has taught studio art and art theory at Florida International University and Miami Dade College\, and regularly leads workshops\, artist talks\, and community-based art programs throughout South Florida\, including programs with Dale Zine\, The Things Lab\, and collaboARTive. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n** Please note\, Refunds will be processed only if requested 72+ hours prior to scheduled workshop date/time.
