What people say

ONE LITTLE WORD workshop

It was a really fun and relaxing process. I bought pencils and a white pen and have been enjoying them since.
The workshop was well paced, you could even go for 2 hours. I enjoyed the intros, the share back and the drawing itself. Kristen set it all up very clearly and positively and she never needs to apologise for her clouds. Or anything.
I’ve made a few more drawings since and thoroughly enjoyed them. I also enjoyed the write and the digging into journals for word of the year. “
