Michele Cassou Workshops U.S.A
The Point Zero Painting
Creativity Without Limits
Micheles workshops are for those who want
creativity to become a part of their life and who are
searching for what is authentic in them. Beginners are
welcome. In the workshops you will:
- Discover your power to create
- Feel the joy of spontaneous expression
- Uncover your own true, original style of painting
- Feel the live connection between you and your
painting
- Dissolve unnecessary patterns and conditioning
- Learn to face and break through creative blocks
- Explore your spirit at its
source
Your work will become as original and as unique as you
are. The unrestricted flow of images and colors will
bring healing and insights. No prior experience is
necessary. There is no need to be specially inspired or
gifted. What is authentic and beautiful in you will
manifest when obstacles are removed and creativity is
understood.
