Hello California! I’m so exited to be coming back to Encinitas this August, with an inspiring new curriculum. I really hope you can join me for this two day painting workshop. Let’s break some art rules together!

My workshops are for everybody! Whether you are at the beginning or in the middle of your climb up the Art mountain - we’ll hike it together. 

On Saturday, August 16th, we’ll be getting comfortable with the medium. We’ll start with watercolour bleeds and colour combinations, then move onto a single flower before building up to a floral composition.

On Sunday, August 17th, we’ll focus on the peculiarities of individual style. Embrace your perfect imperfections and explore the weird in you… while painting nature. This day is all about perfecting techniques and discovering your own folklore.

A delicious lunch, coffee, tea, and snacks will be provided.

Please don’t forget to indicate your dietary preferences / needs.

A list of recommended supplies will be sent following your registration.

See you in California!

About the Space

This newly renovated space in old Encinitas has big windows that allow natural light to flood in all day. And you are just steps away from cafes, shops and of course the beach. You can watch the surfers at Swami’s Break, stroll the gardens at the local Meditation centre, or just take in the endless vistas of the Pacific ocean. Welcome to SoCal!

*CANCELLATION policy

A lot of planning, expenses and time goes into producing the workshops. It’s a long walk up the steep hill in the best of times and everything is weighed, counted and taken into consideration to make this into the best experience possible. Therefore we do not offer credit, refunds or cancellations. However, you’re welcome to transfer your “workshop place” to a friend to go in your stead.

In case (a very unlikely case) the workshop is canceled - you will be notified immediately and a full refund will follow.
