Calm Creativity
This four-day camp combines watercolor painting with simple mindfulness practices. Each day, we’ll focus on a different landscape theme and watercolor technique, with time for quiet reflection and creative exploration.
We’ll use guided painting, breathing exercises, and journaling to help build both painting skills and a mindful approach to creativity. Whether you're new to watercolor or looking to grow your skills, this camp offers a relaxed space to paint, experiment, and connect with nature through art.
Materials: Bring paints, paper and brushes or borrow mine. It is recommended that you have your own so that you can paint at home between classes.
