Artistic expression offers the opportunity for spiritual growth, transformation and healing. This monthly open watercolor studio is a chance to play and learn new techniques without worrying about perfection or finished product. Meet new friends and practice listening to your heart as you paint.

You are invited to attend any or all sessions. Each month features a different theme.

Supplies needed: watercolor paints, paper and brushes; collage papers and glue (if you’d like to explore collage with watercolor); pencils, colored pencils, ink pens, pastels, crayons; container for water; rags or paper towels; reference photos or objects depending on theme. Supplies are provided for in-person participants.

JANUARY THEME: Birds soar as spiritual messengers between the earth and sky. Revered and reflected through art by Native American cultures, they are seen as messengers of a divine nature. January is known as the “quiet” month. It offers time for the three R’s: rest, reflect and recharge. You’ll be offered the sacred space to practice the 3 R’s while painting your favorite winter bird. (Bird photos will be provided to in-person guests; feel free to bring your own as well.)
