Somatic Drawing
Where the body becomes line
drawing begins in the body. Artists are taught to draw what they see, rarely how they move.
Somatic drawing restores that foundation: mark-making through rhythm, breath, and the body's intelligence. Perception becomes physical. Seeing turns into sensing.
No one moves like you. Your marks carry the force of your impulse.
This work rewires how the body expresses form—turning body-based observation into drawing’s power.
MOVEMENT BUILDS MARK. MARK BUILDS MASTERY. Body, breath, movement, mark is one repeatable sequence that expands what becomes possible on the page.
You learn how your body generates marks—not through guessing, but through understanding how uniwue weight, rhythm, and effort create form. The practice is structured. The results are undeniably yours.
Each session builds capacity and range. What starts as instinct becomes command.
WHAT BEGINS AS PRACTICE BECOMES AUTHORITY
Each session sharpens how you work—on the page and in yourself. You stop drawing to prove and start drawing to claim.
Somatic drawing gives you a structure to return to—a practice that deepens with every repetition. Where control meets surrender. Where what moves through you becomes the work.
Drawing becomes effortless. The marks become you.
