TIF Creative Art Workshop Photos

This weekend, TIF held the first of two Creative Art workshops in Tenth's catacombs. We had a great time creating artwork, talking, laughing, and sharing fellowship. One of the attendees has not yet been to a Tenth Sunday service, but walked out with some Tenth materials so hopefully that day will come in time!

Our teacher, Jesse White, explaining our writing practice. We wrote for five minutes on anything that came to mind without editing ourselves. Jesse mentioned that this is a good activity for everyone to practice daily. A few people chose to share what they wrote.

After writing, we moved on to collaging. We cut out pictures, colors, textures and shapes from magazines and decorative papers. Then we glued them in different patterns on paper, and had the option of using oil pastels to add to the design.



Though some of us weren't so sure about our creative abilities, and many of us hadn't done any artwork in a long time, we all produced beautiful, colorful works of art that everyone appreciated.

At least one of us is so gifted she had time to create two masterpieces!

Our last stop was the painting station, where we used a special kind of opaque water color paints to paint anything we wanted! Again, we all created unique works of art and enjoyed
sharing them with the group.

It was an afternoon well spent!
