Drawing Out Your Soul: An Experience of Touch Drawing

Deborah Koff-Chapin

Touch Drawing is a simple yet profound process wherein the fingers take the place of pen or brush: Paper is placed over a freshly painted surface and as you touch the paper, an imprint is made on the underside. The resulting drawing is seen upon lifting the page. The speed and immediacy of the process allow you to create many images in each drawing session. Impulses well up from the unconscious and take form effortlessly on the paper. Each drawing is a stepping-stone, taking you deeper into your core being. Touch Drawing is a creative practice that encourages you to trust your body wisdom and intuition.

Deborah creates a safe and sacred atmosphere conducive to authentic expression. She offers non-intrusive suggestions along with evocative live music while you draw. Movement, journal writing, and circle sharing support the experience of soulwork and renewal. Sink into your depths and find your source of inspiration. Touch Drawing has applications in a broad range of settings: therapy, creativity, healthcare, education, healing, hospice, and as a spiritual practice. No artistic confidence necessary!
