Britain's What's On Event Guide
Dot Mandala Canvas Painting Workshop
In this workshop you will learn the ancient practice of dot mandala painting. These skills were practised by buddhist monks as a form of mindfulness and a way to enlightenment. This workshop is more in depth than the 'introduction to dot mandala' workshop, as you will learn to prepare and draw a grid to plan out a dot mandala design, and paint the design on a 20cm x 20cm canvas.
After starting the day with a coffee and a short introduction, you will learn to draw a simple grid using a mandala stencil that will give you a basic plan to create simple dot mandalas. You will then prepare a 20cm x 20xcm canvas using the stencil to create the guidelines for a mandala pattern.
Using practice paper, you will have a demonstration on how to use the dotting balls and rods to create dotted patterns and swooshes to use in your design. You will then be guided through a dot mandala design of your creation on canvas.
This workshop is for beginners, so no previous knowledge of dot mandala painting is necessary. However, this workshop is also considered the next step if you have already completed the 'introduction to dot mandala painting' workshop. Although I can’t promise enlightenment, I can provide a fun and relaxed day.

All tools/brushes loaned for use on the day
