Nature up close – De-stressing with mindful drawing
After New Year our De-stress drawing group returned for some more relaxing doodling and drawing. We had a nature up close theme which was fun and also captivating, enjoying the colours and doodling patterns and fractals and close ups of natural living things 🦋🍀
Together we peered into magical worlds, finding delight and creative inspiration ❄️ Blair read a related Blake poem excerpt, and a haiku by Buson –
To see a World in a Grain of Sand
William Blake
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour
A bat flits
Yosa Buson
in moonlight
above the plum blossoms
