About the practice of image-making and what you will receive from this experience.
Our ancestors used to translate their life experiences into marks, symbols, and drawings on cave walls, also known as rock art. It is an ancient act of creative expression that still captures our sense of wonder today.
In our day and age, graphic recorders are considered to be modern image-makers “up at the wall”. This class focuses on practicing “the way of the graphic recorder”, also known as “the sacred scribe” in the Intentional Creativity® Motherboard Coaching Certification training. We will be using the skills involved in translating complex thoughts & concepts into simple symbols and icons, involving images and words.
While visual thinking refers to the process by which we make our own thinking visible through the creation of an image with words, graphic recording is the translation of someone else’s content into visual language. In both instances, we ask: “what is the symbol for this thought? This idea? This word?” Conversely, we ask: “what is the word for this symbol?” In good Intentional Creativity® fashion, we will be working in both worlds: the verbal and the imaginal.
During this 90 minute visual voyage you will experience four practices:
- Using visual language, applying it to translate our thoughts visually
- Visual mapping, organizing information visually
- Deep & active listening, capturing the essence of a message visually
- Using color and shading to reinforce meaning-making visually
All you need to bring is ~6 sheets of paper, markers, and colored pencils!
