Introduction to Botanical Ink

By Airtily

Join artist Julie Galante for an afternoon of homemade botanical inks made from foraged plants and kitchen scraps. In 2023 Julie dove into ink-making, producing more than 300 inks from over 100 different botanical sources. In this three-hour workshop, Julie will share what she’s learned from all these inky experiments, giving you the skills and knowledge to create your own library of botanical colours. She'll share her core learnings, including the best ways to extract colours, the best plants to use, and how to preserve and store your inks. We'll also cover different ways of finishing your inks depending on how you'd like to use them. Please note this workshop will take place in Julie's Stockbridge studio, which is accessible via three flights of stairs. We will also spend part of the workshop foraging outside, weather permitting, so please dress accordingly. Tea and coffee will be provided.

10th August FREE MAKE YOUR DREAMS BLOOM: CREATE YOUR DREAM CATCHER

5.0(43)

By Art and Spirituality CIC

Be realistic! Be practical! Ever had someone throw those words at you when you're sharing your biggest dreams? Yeah, we've all been there. The thing is, other people's words and actions can seriously mess with your creative visualization power – they basically clip your manifestation wings and hold you back from what you really want. Once that seed of doubt gets planted, insecurity and fear don't just grow – they become these massive forests that feel impossible to navigate. But here's what we're gonna do about it. Through some deep meditation work, you're gonna release all that stress and those blocks from your past months. You'll start feeling how your feet on the ground can actually be amazing support – not for staying small, but for planting your roots and feeling truly grounded in your power. Your ability to create the life you want comes down to one thing: believing before you can see. It's literally the opposite of "seeing is believing" – and that's where the magic happens. So yeah, I'm gonna ask you to close your eyes and dive into a guided creative visualization of your dreams. This is creation at its most raw and beautiful: when you learn to use your mind to create "something" from "nothing," you can literally achieve and manifest anything. You'll discover how to use your inner compass and understand that every single manifestation is up to you. No one else – just you. And then comes the Making Time – the creative part where you'll craft your beautiful Dream Catcher. We'll explore the origins of this Native American ritual and you'll see how this spiritual tool represents your life through its sacred circle. Making something with your hands is gonna show you that transformation isn't some mysterious thing – it's literally accessible in the palms of your hands. Ready to make your dreams bloom? This class is sponsored by Community Fund, Awards for All and run by Giada Gaslini, from School of Shamanism It is FREE and is aimed at adults, women, etnic minorities, any individuals from low-income background. Suitable for all levels experience. By attending this class you release the teacher, Giada Gaslini and Art and Spirituality Cic, from any liability arising out of any personal injuries, emotional or physical release, death, physical reaction, expectations of results, theft in the venue or damages that may happen to people and objects while attending. Pictures will be taken during the workshop, if you prefer not to be in them, please inform the teacher.

24th August FREE FIND YOUR CENTRE WITH MANDALA BEAN ART

5.0(43)

By Art and Spirituality CIC

A mandala is basically a circle that becomes this beautiful container to hold all your ideas and emotions. We're gonna kick off our workshop together with this really relaxing meditation – complete with crystals and incense – to quiet that busy mind and find the right focus and concentration you need to create your mandala. Once you're feeling ready and calm, you'll create your own personal mandala using different beans, letting your imagination run wild. (we'll glue them on paper) While you're working, I'll be sharing the history, process, and meaning behind mandalas in a super easy way – we'll explore everything from how they show up in nature to their role in religion and art. I'll show you some incredible pictures of mandalas from around the world that'll blow your mind. When your wonderful work is done, I'll guide you through a creative visualization to reconnect with your inner center. Then here's the beautiful part – you'll choose 3 beans from your mandala and plant them with some cotton and water by your window at home. You get to watch them germinate and grow, and they'll become your new seeds for the coming months. It's this amazing cycle – from creating your mandala circle to planting actual seeds that will grow into new life. Your inner work becomes outer growth, literally. This class is sponsored by Community Fund, Awards for All and run by Giada Gaslini, from School of Shamanism It is FREE and is aimed at adults, women, etnic minorities, any individuals from low-income background.

8th August FREE MANDALA PAINTING

5.0(43)

By Art and Spirituality CIC

We invite you to a sacred ciorcal art workshop inspired by the monuments of Edinburgh to celebrate 900years. From the famous to the hidden, we will explore the city’s architectural landscape and creatively express its beauty and unique features through mandala painting. The teacher Rachael will open the workshop with a guided meditation, which will include questions to help you explore your relationship with both the well-known and lesser-known parts of the city. We will then research what feels significant to you, from patterns to styles. You’ll have the opportunity to start forming ideas for your mandala. There are many directions you can take in creating your piece—for example, you might draw inspiration from the city’s Gothic architecture as a whole, or focus on specific sculptures at St. Giles’ Cathedral. You may pay particular attention to the symbolically placed flags or the animals scattered throughout the city (e.g., Greyfriars Bobby). The teacher will encourage you to seek inspiration from books in the room, as well as from your own experience, to curate your unique relationship with Edinburgh’s heritage. This could be depicted through spirals, patterns, lines, shapes and textures. The majority of the class will be spent creating mandala-style paintings that are rich in meaning and connected to Edinburgh’s heritage. Materials will be provided, including paints, canvas pads, pens, and pencils. The workshop will close by gathering in a circle, where everyone will be invited to share what they have created and reflect on what resonates with them about the city. This FREE workshop is sponsored by Edinburgh Council- Edinburgh 900 We prioritize our international community in the area of Gorgie-Dalry-Saughton where our studio is based.  By attending this class you release the teacher, Giada Gaslini and Art and Spirituality Cic, from any liability arising out of any personal injuries, emotional or physical release, death, expectations of results, theft in the venue or damages that may happen to people and objects while attending.
