Drawing Archetype with Frances Earnshaw
Artist Frances Earnshaw will be hosting two Drawing Archetype workshops in October.
Finding our connection to Archetype through active imagination.
Drawing freely.
Connecting through a group experience.
Archetype of Land
1 – 3.30pm, Saturday October 11th
I have a memory of seeing some images of inverted Spirit Ships carved in Stone, depicting people traveling to the Underworld. I haven’t been able to find that on the internet. In any case, this idea of the surface of our land, the dirt in which we plant and grow our food, was in a sense for the ancient peoples of our land something like the surface of a mirror, or a membrane between this life and the Other Place, the place of spirit.
In any case, I can’t help thinking of our land as a place filled with millions of lives and Bones, supporting our time here and being the place where animals are nurtured and people come and go.
Let’s think about the Land and draw together.
Archetype of Woman
1 – 3.30pm, Saturday October 18th
Where do we begin? How do we find an end which is Woman? I am thinking of women who found strength through ganging together, Stitching for survival, the spinners and weavers of this locality. The Spinster. The aunt. The wise Grandmother. The archetype of the Maid (an old word which originally meant a virgin girl or boy). The archetype of the fascinating woman. The woman who is gone, the fleeting face of a Goddess on a TV show.
