The Art of Facilitating
The Art of Facilitating brings process painting into a whole new dimension.
It’s exciting, demanding – and also humbling.
If you try to rely on concepts or techniques that have worked for you before,
it’s going to fall flat –
Because this is not a subject to be learned;
It’s a way of being.
~ Stewart Cubley
The Art of Facilitating brings the principles of process painting into practice. For those choosing to facilitate process painting, this course will provide an experiential understanding of the principles by illustrating how they weave together in the interplay of painting and facilitating. The Art of Facilitating is also relevant if you’re not planning on guiding others—it’s an intimate glimpse into process painting as a living spiritual practice.
