Unlock Your Creativity
Is an Art Practice Yoga for Your Mind?
Much like yoga, making time to be creative and developing a regular art practice can do wonders for your mental health. Just as yoga is about connecting body and breath, an art practice connects mind and creativity. Both practices invite mindfulness, grounding us in the present moment—a state that’s crucial for calming the mind and reducing stress.

Artful Printmaking, Abstracts with Gel Plates.
Discover the art of printmaking in a way that’s approachable in your own home or small studio. This class is designed for artists of all ages and experience levels who are passionate about experimenting and sharing ideas.
Through demonstration, discussion, and guided projects, we’ll explore monotype printmaking using primarily acrylic paint and a gel plate. Monotype printing is a technique that involves applying paint to a smooth surface, such as a gel plate, and then transferring the image to paper by hand. Monotypes are celebrated for their unique textural qualities and often have a painterly effect. While this class will focus on abstract and landscape pieces, the technique is also ideal for those interested in creating materials for collage, scrapbooking, or other mixed media art forms.
Expand and refine your skills.
This art-making technique is fun and can be fast-paced. New and intermediate students will gain confidence and enjoy the immediate gratification of seeing results without the pressure of being a master drawer or painter, while experienced artists will reinforce their skills and discover new inspiration through layering color, shape, and texture to create fresh compositions.
Artful Printmaking is designed to be a standalone workshop, but it can also be paired with Artful Collage and Artful Landscapes to create a three-part series, with each course building on the foundational techniques introduced in Artful Printmaking.
All supplies will be provided. Students should wear clothes suitable for painting or bring a smock or apron.
