Mindful Drawing

12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

A mindful drawing workshop inspired by James Lavadour's Land of Origin exhibition. This hour-long session invites participants to slow down and engage in quiet observation and intuitive mark-making, using Lavadour's layered, expressive landscapes as a source of reflection and inspiration. Through guided prompts and a focus on process over outcome, we'll explore drawing as a meditative practice that fosters presence, creativity, and personal insight. No prior drawing experience needed; all materials provided. No previous art experience necessary; all materials provided. To register, contact us at artheals@uoregon.edu.

James Lavadour: Land of Origin presents the most comprehensive survey to date of works by painter and printmaker James Lavadour (Walla Walla). Spanning five decades of work, this national retrospective celebrates Lavadour’s deep connection to the eastern Oregon landscape, particularly the Umatilla Indian Reservation and surrounding Blue Mountains region where the artist has spent most of his life, and recognizes his esteemed place in contemporary American painting.
