Studio Rūma

A fun activity from this week in a class session, sometimes it’s easy to forget the power of play and making mistakes to learn.

Ink / watercolour with sponged acrylic through a cool stencil.
(Wondering if I can find some Christmas stencils ASAP!)

Someone drew this for me to find at the beach this morning. What a gift!

The koru / spiral shape has many significant meanings. Some of which are representing new life, and unfurling, or for me a new day. The circular motion symbolises the cycle of life and the inward coil re-centres us individually.
-
The spiral also has other indigenous meanings, in Australia it can also be symbol of water, and also has significance in dreaming stories depending on their location.

Seeing a symbol like this often awakens something inside of us. I loved receiving it this morning, and hope that it can bring some meaning to someone else by sharing it here.
