The Drawing Studio

A live 4-week online series that pairs process painting with freewriting in a held, intimate circle — the brush opens the door, and the pen walks through it. Each 3-hour session builds on the last, deepening participants' relationship with their own creative intelligence across the arc of a month. Participants leave each session with something they made, something they wrote, and a growing trust in what arises when they stop trying to get it right.
