“If you hear a voice within you say ‘you cannot paint’ then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.”

– Vincent van Gogh

Often when people hear “painting workshop/class” the phase becomes a stopping point. The thought “I can’t paint” or “I am not creative” pops into the mind and there is no consideration. This workshop is NOT an art class! It is intended to be an experience for students. Can you let go of the pressure that you have to “create something” to walk away with and hang one the wall? Allowing you to embrace the calming, fun and meditative experience that moving beautiful colors around on a canvas gives us? Without expectation we become more open to playing with our creativity.

You don’t have to be a professional artist to experience how joyful, relaxing and meaningful painting can feel. Everyone is creative! Allow yourself to let go of the idea that you have to “produce” a piece of art and understand that this workshop is about experiencing the of the process of being creative and connecting to self! You will begin with a guided mediation to prepare you for “drawing” your breath and then adding color to the canvas. You will be given some guidance to get started but you will be set free to create a painting that resonates with you! No art experience is necessary and all supplies, including a beautiful selection of paint colors, are included.
