Entering into the World of Light and Darkness

Charcoal Drawing with Pamela Whitman

Working with the soft and malleable medium of charcoal allows us to live into, experience, and be creative within the realm of light and darkness. Through charcoal work, we learn to bridge between these polar opposites and experience how they work together in the process of transformation. Through working on our pictures, we work on ourselves! We can find a breathing connection as we explore the appropriateness of different kinds of boundaries.

The work with light and darkness is a unique aspect of Anthroposophic artistic therapy, an essential tool for supporting the process of the incarnation of our spirit into our earthly body, from the turbulent years of the mid-teens through adulthood.

This workshop is an opportunity to deepen your understanding and experience of light and darkness and explore the possibilities for the use of its healing effects.
