Yoga Bead Love. Yoga and Mala Beads Making Workshop.

So excited to start 2014 with series of yoga+art workshops to teach. First on the list: ‘YOGA. BEAD. LOVE.’ A Yoga and Mala Beads Making Workshop on February 23, Sunday, 2-4pm. 

Mala Beads have been around for centuries, are not only beautiful, but also an anytime-reminder of the inner quietude and space available to us at all times. Turning the thumb around each bead while reciting a mantra or holding a visualization helps keep count and sustain focus during meditation.

Enjoy an hour of gentle yoga practice followed by a fun, creative workshop. You will choose, string and make your own Mala Beads Bracelet that complement your unique energy system. You can keep it for yourself or give as a gift. Bring a friend and let’s have fun!  All levels welcome.

Contact: Yoga360.  91 Bankview Dr., Frankfort, IL 60423 / South Chicagoland. Visit www.yoga-360.com or call (815) 806-0360 to reserve your spots.

Tiny Original Paintings

Little Chicago
Tiny Watercolor Paintings.

New paintings.  I'm really enjoying painting my city in minuscule form.  It's a bit challenging, especially when trying to retain white parts of the paper.  But just like what I tell my kids, the most important thing is to enjoy and have fun with whatever you're doing.  Also, it helps when you have a good plan before laying that first brushstroke.

What are you working on?

First thing that comes to mind when you think of France is Romance.  This week's featured artist creates romantic and classic accessories worthy to be displayed in a gallery.  Meet Dorota, the French artist behind Jewelry Bijou.  As an artist living in France, her main focus is to create unique pieces that differ from high street fashion.  She designs each piece with utmost attention to style and great sophistication.  

To learn more about Dorota and her work, please visit her website.

Every Friday, I feature artists from all over the world as my way of supporting fellow artists' passion and artistic pursuits.  If you want to be featured in The Morning Artist Blog, please leave a comment on this post and share this article to your friends.
