Dot mandala is about mindful creativity. You’ll find yourself slowing down, focusing and switching off from everything else. It’s incredibly calming and surprisingly therapeutic: an antidote to a busy life. And, best of all, absolutely no artistic experience is needed!
Tina Bodsworth of Craft Calling will be offering a weekend of mindful dot mandala workshop. You will be guided through the dotting techniques, and will have time to practice with the various tools before creating your mandalas on smooth decorative stones.
Friday evening
A little introduction about the history, methods and examples of dot mandala to inspire your own creations
Saturday
We will begin with a demonstration and you’ll try out the various techniques on practice card before moving onto a mini stone for your first taste of dotting onto an 3D item. These are ideal as fridge magnets or place holders.
You’ll then move onto your main large stone which is 10cm in diameter. You’ll be guided through this individually according to your own personal style. Everybody will work towards a similar pattern, but you will produce something totally unique to you.
Sunday
This session will be about finishing your stones which will have dried overnight, adding depth to your pattern by top dotting. If you want to make more than the included stones, there will be cards available to create more beautiful mandalas.
