Follow along in this meditative art class!4/14/2025 Artist-Errant Group - Cultivating Unconditional LoveIn a world as turbulent as ours, it can be exhausting to have our expectations, hopes, fears, and circumstances constantly shaken or broken. The ground keeps shifting—and so many of us are left searching for something steady, something real.This meditative painting session is an invitation to begin cultivating eudaimonia—a form of inner wellness not dependent on external conditions. One of the most powerful paths to this deeper resilience is the practice of unconditional love: a love that doesn’t ask for anything in return, that radiates freely from within.We’ll begin with a simple guided meditation, then move into intuitive painting as a contemplative act. This is not about making something “good”—it’s about becoming present, letting go, and painting from the space of the heart.artisterrant.comjoshgreenart.com

Today’s episode is a live recording of my artist talk at the 92nd st. Y in Manhattan. I am an instructor at 92Y, teaching 6 classes. The talk is titled Self-realization through Artistic Expression. What good is art? Why do we keep doing it? Art Center faculty and painter Josh Green to discuss the purpose behind his painting practice and the benefits art can offer us all. He shares his perspective on the ultimate good in art: self-realization through self-expression. The arts allow us to gain self-knowledge by offering moments of expression and reflection. Many of us never create time for reflection and lose all our energy to worries and responsibilities. Art allows us time to discover our true nature in this brief existence, something many never take the time to do. 92NY https://www.92ny.org/instructor/josh-green .Participate in the podcast! www.patreon.com/thepaintersdialectic/ Josh’s website Joshgreenart.com Josh’s school Greenatelier.art Josh’s Instagram @josh_green_artist
