Happy New Year! I’m so excited to begin 2026 with you. Over the past year, watching so many of you explore color, emotion, gesture, and your own creative voice has been such a joy — and it has inspired me to expand and refine what I offer in the studio.

Today, I’m excited to share my Winter Workshop Schedule with you.
These classes are small, intimate, materials-included sessions designed to help you deepen your practice in a supportive, inspiring space.

Registration is now open — and Early Bird savings are available this week only.

Let’s paint together this year!

1. Gesture to Abstraction: From Movement to Meaning

Saturday, February 7 · 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
2-Hour Workshop · Working on Paper

Gesture is the heartbeat of abstraction. In this workshop, we explore how movement, rhythm, and instinct form the foundation of expressive painting. Using still life, simple drawing prompts, and reference images, we begin with energetic sketches and build toward a more developed mixed-media work.

You’ll explore:
• Gesture drawing techniques
• Translating movement into abstraction
• Layering with pencil, pastel, paint, and washes

Perfect for: loosening up, trusting intuition, and creating from the body rather than the mind.

2. The Language of Color: Building Your Personal Color Story

Saturday, February 28 · 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
2-Hour Workshop · Paper & Mixed Media

Color is emotion, memory, and instinct. Together, we explore how color operates in an artwork — from quiet monochromes to layered palettes — and how your personal response to color shapes meaning.

You’ll explore:
• Mixing color with intention
• Harmonious and expressive color relationships
• Building a palette that feels personal and authentic

Perfect for: artists seeking confidence, clarity, and emotional connection through color.

LATELY, I’VE BEEN THINKING…

Teaching these workshops has become one of the most meaningful parts of my practice. My goal is to create a grounded, inspiring space where you can explore, experiment, and surprise yourself.

I can’t wait to paint with you this year.

Until next time,
