Art Workshops & Classes
Wish you had more space in your life to make art?
Feeling creative… but not totally sure where to start?
You’re not alone. So many adults crave a creative practice — they just need the right guidance, structure, and invitation.
I teach drawing, watercolor, and calligraphy to adults through in-person workshops, my online learning hub, and thoughtfully designed worksheets you can use at your own pace. Whether you’re picking up a brush for the first time or returning after a long break, my classes are designed to help you build skills and confidence — without losing the joy.

Let’s make more art — together. 🎨

Rediscovering Green: A Watercolor Wander Among the Trees
Think you know green? Think again. Join us for a watercolor workshop, where we will wander through Hoyt Arboretum. Mix lush, forest-inspired colors and sketch the trees and plants around you. Perfect for beginners, nature lovers, and anyone ready to see green in a whole new way.
Cultivating Wonder: Botanical Illustration in Ink & Watercolor
Come play with ink, watercolor, and the beauty of the Oregon Coast in Manzanita! In this relaxed workshop, you’ll explore botanical illustration while slowing down and soaking in your surroundings. We’ll sketch and paint in the Hoffman Center’s Wonder Garden, inspired by windswept plants, salty air, and quiet creative moments. Perfect for all levels—come unwind, make art, and enjoy a coastal escape.
Create Your Own Illustrated Travel Journal - on the Oregon Coast!
Tired of journaling? Try Illustrated Journaling instead! Whether your travels take you abroad, to the park or just to your backyard, this workshop is for you! Learn how to create illustrated journals of the things you see, taste and experience. This is a two-day workshop at the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology on the Oregon coast.
Imagine a creative practice that fits your life.
I designed my online membership to take the guesswork and isolation out of learning drawing, watercolor, and illustration.
When you join my membership community, you gain a community of unfurling artists re-igniting their creativity.
Join the Collective and get started today.
