Mark Making and Mood: An Expressive Painting Experience

This is not your average paint class. Mark Making & Mood is a guided exploration of expressive painting that focuses on movement, emotion, and raw creativity and fun. Perfect for anyone looking to reconnect with their inner artist and shake loose the stress of daily life. (This will take place in my studio warehouse in south Nashville). Classes are limited to 8 people.

Participants will:

  • Learn intuitive painting techniques

  • Explore gesture, rhythm, and texture

  • Experiment with unconventional tools

  • Create a finished abstract piece on canvas

Why People Love This:

  • It’s liberating. There’s no “wrong” way to paint.

  • It’s physical. Get out of your head and into your body.

  • It’s therapeutic. Many describe it as art therapy without the pressure.

  • It’s beautiful. The results are often stunning, raw, and deeply personal.

Every Class Includes:

  • 2 hour guided session

  • All materials (acrylic paints, canvas, brushes, tools needed for the session)

  • Warm-up (breath and intentions)

  • Light refreshments

Saturday, July 12 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM CST
Classes are non-refundable and non-transferable.
