The ancient art practice of Indian Minitaure Painting is as poetic as it is descriptive, combining symbolism and narrative within original composition, bright colours and minute detail.
This workshop will introduce and discuss the qualities of Indian Miniature Painting and the traditional techniques and materials that are still used today. You will gain understanding of the process involved in creating a painting, experience meditation as the foundation of the art-form, and discover the essential element of devotion. You will try your hand at painting classical line work with the single-hair brush, find access to the neutral mind through meditation techniques, and will be able to sample authentic handmade paints and brushes as gifted by the royal artists of Jaipur City Palace.
This workshop will be facilitated by artist and yoga teacher, Victoria Leader. Sign-up to discover unique insights, as learned directly from India’s award winning master craftsmen, the renowned Ramdev brothers of Jaipur, Rajasthan.
