Description

An immersive workshop designed to help an artist deepen their connection to self as a creator, expand their artistic skills, and

build unshakable confidence in self expression - in a space where creativity is about trusting one's instincts, embracing spontaneity, and allowing the work to evolve naturally, skillfully and honestly . Through intuitive painting, fearless mark-making, unexpected and inventive color use, artists will explore new ways of letting go, taking risks, and expanding on self expression. This is a space for bold exploration, self-discovery, and creative freedom, where mistakes become stepping

stones and experimentation leads to breakthroughs.

Workshop Goals

In my workshops, intermediate artists are invited to reconnect with freedom — to play, experiment, and trust their instincts. We’ll loosen old habits, stretch beyond hesitation, and welcome the unexpected. With curiosity as your compass and core principles as your guide, you’ll deepen your own creative voice, discover new possibilities, and find the joy and confidence that come from truly expressive art.

A Note from Liz I am an abstract expressionist painter, interior designer, and mentor to artists worldwide. My work is grounded in the belief that creativity is how we make sense of ourselves and the world. While I don’t teach rigid rules, I do teach from a deep understanding of color, design, and the fundamental principles that make powerful, authentic art. These foundations are not limitations — they are launchpads
