✨Holding space for our bodies. ✨
Workshop by: Stephanie Chinn
My name is Stephanie and I am an illustrator who focuses primary on work intended to dismantle how we view our bodies through the lens of society. Most of my pieces are created, in hopes, to make the viewer know that they are worthy for who they are, AS they are. That they don’t have to be anything other than what they are. I also work to help people understand that most of our struggles are rooted in the belief that we do have to be someone else.
I long to create a space where we can talk openly, and honestly, about our struggles with loving our bodies. While we can slap positive affirmations all over the internet until we are blue in the face — creating a community where we can connect with others who are facing the same challenges can bring us closer to understanding ourselves and dismantling old beliefs. I want this to be an honest, and open discussion where we can see others, and be seen ourselves.
After we connect and share our stories (if you are comfortable enough to), we will paint whatever came up for us in a guided painting session. NO ART OR PAINTING EXPERIENCE NEEDED, so don’t worry. This painting class is all about exploring and tapping into our intuition, it is not a technique based class.
This workshop is open to everyone and this will be a safe space FOR everyone.
You will walk away with:
*Two small paintings done by YOU. One reflecting where you are at, and one reflecting where you hope to be.
*A community of others who are in this experience with you.
✨I can’t wait to see you there. ✨
