      I hear from other artists "I haven't been able to put aside enough time to paint. The one thing we say we all want to do more of!!!

      Each month I offer an opportunity for us to do just that. It's not about learning anything, simply setting aside the time to do the one thing you say you love doing.

      At the Artsy Level and above. We'll have an opening moment of centering and peace (guided meditation), and finish with a few moments of sharing and gratitude (Q&A + critique).

      Mark your calendar and plan to attend from your workspace. Watch for the Zoom Link once subscribed.
