Author Connie Smith Siegels ideas, developed over many years of\nresearch and learning, build on the meditation practice\nof sensory awareness, a blending of Buddhist\nmeditation and simple physical activities. Applied to\ncreative expression, sensory awareness distills\ndrawing and painting to their simplest components:\ntouching, seeing, and moving. In this unusual and\nfreeing book, artists learn to use these new sensations\nto guide their hand toward the movements,\nshapes, and colors that express what they are feeling.\nNot only do the artists produce a work of art,\nthey express their own emotions and inner wisdom.\nTechniques gradually build to more complex visual\nexpressions such as representational drawing, color theory, composition, and to the use of art in healing. Part art instruction, part art therapy, Spirit of Drawing offers a rich spiritual pathway to self-expression.\n\n• Presents Siegel’s unique ideas, honed over\nforty years of work in art and in spirituality\n\n• An entirely new approach to art education\n\n• Innovative ideas for therapists and everyone\nin the healing professions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Watson-Guptill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949209907253,"sku":"ByrdShop_0823032124","price":94.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780823032129_93678482-4d57-41b0-a8e3-5b0937201b6a.jpg?v=1781423355","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/spirit-of-drawing-a-sensory-meditation-guide-to-creative-expression-9780823032129","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
