TOUCH DRAWING
This is a profound yet playful process through which our hands are "no longer instruments of the mind, but organic extensions of the soul", to quote Debra Koff-Chapin the originator of the process and founder of The Center for Touch Drawing. The possibilities for creating with and from this basic process are as many as there are souls drawn to express themselves in through this immediate, simple yet profound process.
Rolling paint onto a board and placing tissue over it, we draw using only our fingers and hands as tools. Afterward we contemplate the images our soul has guided us to bring forth, an expression of the visions which are uniquely ours to offer the planet, surrendering to the Creative Life Force.
The process may take us to additional media and formats to further satisfy that which we sense wants to be expressed. We move into the landscape of our body, our emotions, our soul, as well as the earth Mother providing the opportunity for a deep listening and evolution of imagery that is truly authentic. < more about the process >
