Online live Mixed Media Classes, workshops & Coaching
“The way I teach is a mindful approach to intuitive expressive art. I start us off with a settling meditation designed to quieten our inner critics! I want my participants to enjoy the art process but also to feel creatively confident! I want you to feel good about what you have created but still be open to growing, experimenting and learning. This is great if you are just beginning your creative journey or want to get to the next level in your practice.”
Monthly Mindful Mixed Media: The Art of Feeling
Last Friday of the Month: noon-1:00pm PST
Feeling stuck or don’t know where to begin?
These one hour live online sessions are designed carefully to allow you to express yourself in an authentic way. You will be given various prompts using different materials. The goal is to move your experience from your head to the paper in a way that feels soothing and enlightening.
Making art can be a lonely and courageous endeavor. It can sometimes feel like you are making your way in the dark! I have found through my own career as an artist and creative coach, that support, feedback and inspiration can enable you to be more fearless and experimental as you find your own unique creative voice. That is the goal of our workshops: to give you the wings and help you fly!
This course is perfect for ongoing study as well as beginners who are curious about the process.
“I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic workshop with the SCAA group this past Saturday. I really love your art and your style.”
