Tantric Painting
Tantric Painting is a contemplative art practice that invites you to experience ancient meditation teachings from Vigyan Bhairav Tantra in modern enterpretation through creativity, symbolism, and direct personal exploration.
Meditation does not end when you open your eyes. It continues through the creative act.
Tantric Painting translates the path of tantra into the language of creativity, inviting us to explore ancient meditation practices with the heart of an artist and the wonder of an explorer.
What if meditation did not end when you opened your eyes?
What if the image that arose in silence became the doorway into a deeper intimacy with yourself?
My workshops combine meditation, contemplative art, creative writing, and symbolic exploration into one immersive experience. They are designed for anyone who wishes to reconnect with their authentic creative nature — no artistic experience is required.
Painting is not the goal.
Painting becomes the continuation of meditation.
Through guided contemplative practices inspired by ancient tantric wisdom, participants discover an inner image and give it form through color, symbols, and intuitive expression. The creative process becomes a mirror, revealing insights that often cannot be reached through words alone.
Each workshop invites participants to slow down, listen deeply, create freely, and leave with both a personal artwork and a lived experience of presence.
What to Expect
- Guided meditation & Channeling
- Gentle movement and embodiment practices
- Painting as meditation
- Creative reflection and writing
- Sharing circle and integration
Each workshop explores a different theme, symbol, or meditation method, allowing participants to experience creativity as a spiritual practice and a path of self-discovery.
No Artistic Experience Needed
These workshops are not about learning to paint.
They are about discovering your own creative voice.
Everyone is welcome, whether you have never held a paintbrush before or have been creating art your whole life.
The emphasis is on presence rather than perfection, exploration rather than technique, and authentic expression rather than artistic achievement.
What will you get from the workshop?
- You will create a number of paintings that reflect different aspects of your inner world and carry important messages for your life path and relationship with yourself.
- You will discover tools of using painting as a map of your inner world and as a support on your life path.
- You will get to know yourself and your inner world a little bit more.
- You will experience moments of peace, tranquility, presence. Everything that meditation brings.
- You will become more alive, creative and discover something new.

Testimonials
Marina, Moscow
“I came for the workshop in order to dissolve in that space, to receive new experience, to understand myself better and to leave things that are not needed anymore. I received a new vision, new experience that is incomparable, what Aryana does is really great. There is something special in her work, that touches. I met her for the first time but I felt relaxed and at ease with her. And I realise that all is well. I enjoyed the meditation techniques, found crazy and inspiring images inside myself. Cosmic! Sometimes I would dissapear and fly so high that I was scared not to return! What I take with me: I feel I gained some power and confidence that I have n't worked with before. And as a confirmation of my big plan, of my life path I created a painting. Feeling very grateful!”
Sergei, Moscow
“This workshop gave me an opportunity to feel myself, to become more confident and find out many new aspects of myself! It was a precious experience that I would love to repeat endlessly because the space created during these days was very familiar and warm. It really inspired me to be with likeminded people and to move in the same direction of inner exploration as a family. And the most important for me that I made it! I was afraid of not being able to express myself and not to have any visions or messages to express. But what came out is really powerful. Visions that I receive due to methods offered by Aryana really work. I think it is also important that I was able to trust completely and give myself fully to all the practices, so the result I received equals to my involvement. I love the paintings I've made!”

Natasha, Moscow
“It was a great space for creativity and connecting with myself. I was amazed with the images I saw of myself and of the messages that I received during the times I wouldn't expect – like dancing or simply relaxing at the breaks. I feel how deeply related my paintings with my current situation in life. It helps me to sort it out. I would surely come again and explore more!”
Nadezhda, Moscow
“It was really important to me to find my “Inner Sun”. I tend to be moody and sad, focusing too much on negative things in life, so to realize that I have a big source of light within me and to depict it on paper in a simple childlike shape was a great insight. I'll keep it close by me to remind me when I forget”
