Welcome to Session 6. Building on the approaches of the last session, we are adding more layering and resources to the drawing. For the first time we introduce stencils and the use of oil pastel resist to watercolour application, creating a beautiful result on our vegetation-inspired half circles.

This session deepens the bodily connection further. The relaxation through cultural practices continues with Māori Poi, followed by the ‘line dance’ using grey wool on A1 paper, absolutely magical. Do encourage your participants to focus on enjoyment rather than perfection with the Māori Poi, a little forward prompting goes a long way, and don’t forget to space the chairs far enough apart.

Everything you need is listed below. Take the time to refer to your training notes and listen to the materials and tips film for this session — they are genuinely helpful. And as always, we’re here if you have any questions.
