A mindful practice
Ingrid will share with you a simple technique to help you awaken your creativity and connect with your source of inspiration. The goal is to gain tools to plan your painting and start your practice from a place of mindfulness and kindness.
Test your supplies
It might not be the most exciting exercise, and that is the reason Ingrid has decided to make it for you: Test the different paints, inks and other mediums to see how do they behave after the masking fluid is removed. Is this important when you paint? Yes/No?
