This workshop invites participants into a hands-on creative process rooted in layering, experimentation, and letting go. Through mixed-media techniques and guided prompts, participants are encouraged to release control, trust the process, and stay open to what emerges. The focus is not on the finished product, but on willingness—showing up, staying present, and allowing the work to unfold naturally.
