    The forest is always creating

    The wind blows

    The lights change

    The birds sing

    The trees tell stories if we’re willing to slow down and listen

    This September I invite you to join me for three days of art, nature and renewal. We will create intuitively, gathering inspiration from the land, experimenting, and leaving perfection outside the door. Mother nature is the greatest artist of all. A few places remain in our small gathering. No art experience necessary—only curiosity. Send me message to reserve your space.

Green House Studio · Encinitas, CA

Green House Studio is a space wrapped in glass and light—where the air feels warm and alive—and everything growing around us seems to quietly remind you that becoming takes time.

This is where I mentor and teach.

There is no rush here, no expectation to produce something impressive or perfect. The work is about allowing instead of forcing, about listening instead of striving, about letting what has been living quietly inside you find its way out through color and movement and mark making.

If you’ve been longing for a place where you can create without pressure and simply let what’s inside you flow outward in its own time and its own way, this is where that kind of work unfolds.
