Creative Seasons with Kristy Kensinger (Summer)
RegisterCreative Seasons
There’s a natural rhythm that our ancestors followed for generations. Through my life and art practice, I strive to incorporate this organic flow into my daily routine, adapting to the changing seasons.
Through this workshop, we will explore how to connect your inspiration to the season by creating vision boards and color palettes. We will find little musings for each season to inspire our artwork. I will provide art prompts for each season and different creative techniques and activities to explore. I will also walk through my own practice and how I shift as a professional artist season to season. I hope you leave with strategies and inspiration for finding your own rhythm outside of the workshop. As a nature enthusiast, I will incorporate sketches and paintings of landscapes and nature's details, such as wildlife and flora / fauna into my teaching.
Beyond the studio, we will discuss ways to connect with the season through your lifestyle, including seasonal shopping and cooking, spiritual practices, and more! You can join the workshop for a single season or participate in all four seasons.
