I started painting as a way to connect on a heart and soul level with others, and nothing is more important to me than continuing to foster community between artists and friends. Each year, I do 1-2 in-person art retreats in beautiful settings with delicious food and lots of studio and sharing time!  Here are my current retreat offerings for 2025-2026.

Playful Blooms -- May 1-4, 2025

Lake Santeetlah, North Carolina

I’m thrilled to invite you to my Playful Blooms Art Retreat this May, set against the serene backdrop of Lake Santeetlah, North Carolina. Outlined by 60 miles of preserved national forest shoreline, 80 percent of the lake is protected, creating an oasis of nature and serenity in every direction. It's the perfect space for you to relax, tap into your creative magic and paint beautiful flowers alongside fellow artists. Expect delicious meals, cozy lakeside accommodations, and an art workshop that promises to enrich your artistic skills and spirit.
