“Your class has been a stepping stone in getting my creativity back. I felt joy at a blank page instead of my usual dread, and the simple, repetitive motion brought clarity like a meditation I could do on my own.”

“Jen welcomed me into a nurturing setting with a gentle, emotional meditation. The journey mattered more than the result, and I was thrilled to create a painting I’m proud of—reminding me each day, I CAN DO ANYTHING.’”

Meet Jen

Hi, I’m Jen — an intuitive artist, meditation guide, and yoga instructor. I help people reconnect with their creativity and inner calm through mindful art practices that support healing, self-discovery, and growth.

Art found me during a difficult time in my life and became a powerful tool for reflection, release, and renewal. Now, I share these meditative and expressive techniques so others can experience the peace and freedom that creative flow brings.

In every course and workshop, I’ll guide you step by step to quiet your mind, awaken your imagination, and create from a place of presence. No art skills are needed — just an open heart and a willingness to explore.

Let’s create something meaningful together.

You don’t need to be an artist. You just need to begin.
