When I write my thoughts down, I notice Iโ€™m more filled with gratitude. Journaling helps calm my nerves and brings me back into the present moment. Thatโ€™s why I felt called to design journals of my own, ones that gently hold space for reflection without judgment.

This workshop is an invitation to slow down and find calm through simple mark-making. I used to think I needed rules or a plan to create. What I learned is that one line, repeated with intention, can quiet the mind and bring you back to the present. Weโ€™ll explore rhythm, movement, and curiosity on the page.

Rules are what stopped me from creating for a long time. I thought I needed to know more before I could begin. Now I approach painting with curiosity and experimentation. Thatโ€™s how I discovered what works for me and what doesnโ€™t. Fundamentals matter and can come later, but intuitive painting needs ease and fun to keep you creating.

A simple look at the everyday tools I gather for mark making. Objects found around the house that invite curiosity, play, and experimentation.

This is often where I begin when I want to create without pressure and prepare for my intuitive mixed media art workshops.

Gather what feels interesting. You already have more than you think.

This reel is a view from the window of my studio. He gave me this view and built the inside of this space, every wall, wire, light, and detail that allows me to create here. I donโ€™t take that lightly.

I am still unboxing, organizing art tools, equipment, and supplies. I still need cabinetry and the staircase to the storage loft built. It is not finished, and neither am I. But this season is reminding me that sometimes you have to slow down and enjoy the process of your life, not just the destination.

Reflection and creativity continue to be part of my wellness and how I care for myself in every season.

If you feel called to explore creativity as a gentle wellness practice, I teach intuitive mixed media art classes at Riseilience.

Iโ€™m prepping stencils for my monthly art workshops at Riseilience.

I cut these with my Cricut using recycled manila folders and found acetate. They are simple tools we can reach for when we donโ€™t want to get stuck in our heads or chase perfection.

Theyโ€™re optional.
Theyโ€™re freeing.
They help us keep creating.

Iโ€™m teaching a 6-part workshop series, held once a month at Riseilience, designed to help you move, play, and create with more ease and trust.

If youโ€™ve been craving space to make art without pressure, this is your invitation.

Fun day, not finished day.
Recycling what Iโ€™ve already made.
Playing without pressure.
Pausing long enough to discover whatโ€™s already there.

This is the same spirit I bring into the creative workshops Iโ€™m teaching at Riseilience... slow, intuitive, process-led, and welcoming of whatever emerges.

I drove up to Amesbury the other day thinking about how fast time has been moving. Watching Priscilla move is a reminder to slow down, return to the body, and be present in the here and now.

Seeing her wear my flare yoga pants brings me so much joy, not just because I made them, but because of who is wearing them. Women like Priscilla, holding space at Riseilience.

You can find a selection of my wearable art at the Riseilience Cafรฉ, or explore the full collection online. Iโ€™ll also be teaching my first intuitive mixed media art workshop at Riseilience Yoga Studio on January 23.

If youโ€™ve been craving more peace, this is your invitation to slow down with us.
