Studio Sessions 2026: Abstract Expressionist Painting + Creative Meditation Workshop with Kim O'Neil

A spacious, expressive workshop combining guided meditation with energetic, intuitive abstract painting.We begin with a short grounding meditation designed to quiet the analytical mind and open the sensory, imaginative one.

This isnt mystical -its practical.

A way to drop into your body, loosen control, and access the part of your creativity that responds rather than overthinks.

From there, youll move into a series of expressive exercises:Gesture and movement, using the whole arm, not just the wrist.

Emotional markmaking; translating internal states into rhythm, pressure, and speed.Largescale abstraction, working boldly without fear of getting it wrong.

Colour as energy... choosing colours based on sensation rather than theory.The day is about freedom, confidence, and connection to your own creative voice.

Youll finish with one or two expressive abstract works and a clearer sense of how to access flow in your painting practice.
