Painting in the park ~ The Ladybug

Ladybugs are symbols of luck, protection and childlike innocence and are also thought to be signs of adaptability, resiliency, and even metamorphosis, thanks to their many life stages and ability to come out of hibernation after a long winter of resting.

If you love ladybugs, or are attracted to their red and black cuteness, then this painting in the park workshop event is meant for you!

Join us on the 4th of December for our next painting in the park workshop event where we will dive deep into ladybug symbolism and meaning at the canvas.

This class will cost R350 and includes all if your materials. (Early bird tickets available for R250 so book today!)

We start at 09h00 and class will end at 14h00. See what to bring with below!

My name is Gideon Busquét-Craucamp (DiMAP.)

Aka "Gideonslight". I am a Certified *Creatively Fit Coach. I am excited to guide you to "Activate your Creative HeART" and rediscover childhood resilience, through playful expression at the canvas!

I make use of a therapeutic art processes which demonstrates through participation that we are all naturally resilient and capable of overcoming limiting beliefs which prevent us from living our best life!

The canvas is a metaphor for your life!

*Creative coaching is a form of life coaching that helps people develop their creative skills and work through any barriers holding them back in their life.

The canvas serves as the metaphor that helps you to identify limiting beliefs and or attitudes that is counter productive to achieving your highest goals and ideals. The symbolism reminds us of our resilience and helps us identify areas that can improve when we apply it with mindful awareness.

Although painting is involved, no previous art experience or skills are required to participate in a class, or to benefit from the insight that can be gained through this experiential personal growth journey.
