Art is for All!

Through this course of 8 days, I could confidently say that art has no limits, no boundaries! It definitely does not need a degree or requires you to be an expert.

Art is all about creativity, patience, focus and a lot of fun! It was quite an amazing journey where I got to try my hands on a few amazing art forms like Lipan, pottery, fabric painting, embroidery and more!

My most favorite form of art that I am taking back with me is Lipan art. Understanding the steps and processes of the art form, I also explored it further and made one to gift someone too.

I would love to be a part of this workshop the following year too.Th ank you to my facilitators Neha ma’am and Priyanka ma’am for giving this platform to explore different art forms.

Wabi Sabi!

Art and craft has always had a special place in my heart… on this voyage I was able to unfurl my hidden love for pottery and many more artforms that we were introduced to. I feel delighted to have worked with art connoisseurs viz. Priyanka ma’am and Neha ma’am. Every piece that I created has my heart and yes a tad bit of brains as well for the technicalities that goes into creating an art piece…They say ‘beauty lies in imperfections’, hence the title -wabi sabi- is apt for all that I have learnt in this enlightening journey! Forever grateful to FS for this experience…

The freedom to express!!

In many subjects, there’s often a right or wrong answer, but art taught me the beauty of subjectivity. Our facilitators created a nurturing environment where every idea was welcomed, and every creative impulse was celebrated. One of the most remarkable aspects of our art class was the sheer diversity of styles and mediums we were encouraged to explore. From the delicate intricacies of lippan art to making a bag for ourselves, every session was a doorway to a new world. The art class became more than just learning about art; it was a journey of self-discovery.

Art Therapy

How do you communicate?

Art teaches communication by providing another way of portraying feelings, ideas, and arguments to an audience besides words. Self expression can happen through creative means like drawing, painting, music and many more!
During the life class I was able to express myself through various means of art including paper mache, lippan art, fabric painting, pottery, not only this but also cooking and baking.
I enjoyed the creative process that helped me explore self-expression and, in doing so, find new ways to gain personal insight.
Art is truly therapeutic!


Wisdom in simplicity

Reflecting on my art classes has been a transformative journey. Exploring various forms like Lipan art, Van Gogh’s tissue art, pottery, painting, wall paintings, and fabric painting has not only honed my skills but also deepened my appreciation for diverse artistic expressions. The intricate techniques learned, especially from the works of Lipan and Van Gogh, have left an indelible mark on my creative process. Engaging in pottery allowed me to sculpt my ideas into tangible forms, while wall paintings and fabric art broadened my understanding of space and texture.

Each activity became a brushstroke in the canvas of my artistic growth. The classes provided a sanctuary for self-discovery, akin to a meditative experience. Through this artistic exploration, I found my voice, my style evolving with every stroke and shape. The supportive environment and the guidance received have been instrumental in fostering my confidence as an artist.

In essence, these art classes have been more than just skill-building exercises; they have been a journey of self-expression, unlocking the boundless potential within me. I look forward to continuing this artistic odyssey, armed with newfound techniques and a deeper connection to the world of art.

The Canvas of Self-Exploration- A journey through art and skill!

This year, I embarked on an exciting journey of self-discovery through an art and skill workshop as part of my life classes. Filled with eagerness to explore my creativity, I looked forward to the upcoming days with anticipation. As the workshop unfolded, time seemed to slip away, leaving me amazed at how quickly it passed. Through moments of introspection, I discovered a newfound appreciation for my patience and ability to enjoy moments of solitude, especially when immersed in the vibrant world of colors. Each session brought forth opportunities to delve into various forms of artistic expression, allowing me to broaden my horizons and push the limits of my creativity.

Reflecting on this experience, I feel compelled to encourage others to embark on their own artistic journey. We all possess the potential to create beauty in our own unique way, and through art, we can tap into that innate ability. The workshop wasn’t just about refining artistic skills; it was also about embracing the artist within each of us. It served as a reminder that art is not only about the final product but also about the process of self-discovery and expression.

As I look back on the workshop, I am grateful for the lessons learned and the memories created. It was a time of growth, exploration, and inspiration. Moving forward, I carry with me a newfound sense of confidence in my creative abilities and a deeper understanding of the importance of embracing creativity in all aspects of life.

Art and skills- Crafting Creativity

This year, I decided to delve into the realm of arts and skills, experimenting with various techniques such as lippan art, tissue craft, pottery and wall painting, canvas bag making and cooking. Among them, lippan art stood out as my favorite, particularly because it was my first time attempting it and demanded a great deal of patience but the result was incredibly rewarding. Exploring pottery was an exciting addition to my creative journey! It had been a fascinating new experience getting my hands into the clay and shaping it up. Finishing off with culinary arts is a delightful way to round out our exploration of creativity! Thank you!!
