Workshops and Classes

Imagine with Art workshops and classes give you the opportunity to step into the creative moment where intuition and freedom of expression take flight.

Sketching, painting and collage instruction are combined with meditation, movement and writing in a playful and supportive atmosphere.

Creative expression, healing and spiritual insight are emphasized over mastery of technique. No previous painting experience is necessary.
