WHAT PREVIOUS STILL POINT SKETCHING PARTICIPANTS SAY:

​

"It introduced me to a variety of techniques I could use!

Ultimately it made me see things differently and I now look at the world and see shapes, colours and textures!" 

​

​

"Completing the challenge, for me, was key in helping me to recover from depression. I was in a very low state, the guided focus on drawing practice was extremely mindful and gave me a daily purpose. The varied techniques of the a to z opened up a creative flow within me. Many times, I would find myself absorbed in creative drawing processes for several hours at a time. The firm and gentle encouragement of Marigold, whilst being completely non judgemental, was key to my enjoyment and completion of the challenge. Backed by the open and easy going nature of the fb group as a safe place to share and chat about our output. At the end of the challenge I had developed a renewed enthusiasm for personal creativity. Marigold is an inspiration."

​

"I liked that the structure of the challenge was laid out systematically and before the challenge began. I like working to a plan with flexibility within it. I particularly enjoyed the supportive FB environment. It's hard to decide on the best thing, because the whole thing was really good."

​

"I loved the gentle, kind, non judgemental and supportive encouragement by Marigold, both online and face to face in Zoom and the mindfulness aspect of the daily drawing."

​

" The best part of the challenge for me was being part of a community, sharing work and learning."

​

" I loved the daily discipline, guidance and online supportive community."

 

" It was great to try out lots of different ideas and ways to draw, be part of the community, and commit to daily drawing."

​

" It was so good to get drawing again!"

​

"The best part for me was being part of a lovely online art group and taking the time each day to stop and make some art."
