Spend four days and nights at the relaxing luxury home of our host Marian Armstrong (or overnight at local Flagstaff lodging). Located in the heart of the pines beneath the San Francisco Peaks, connect with yourself and other creatives in a natural environment teaming with inspiring energy. Recharge your excitement for your own art, discover a deeper connection with your art and soul, and head home with a rested heart and newly inspired paintings.
In a nurturing setting and a warm, supportive environment, Kellie will guide you to tap into internal and external inspiration that will fuel your artistic fire. Then Kellie will show you how to translate all of your unique inspiration into beautiful mixed media paintings that reflect who YOU ARE, and what’s important to you.
**Retreat payment is non-refundable. We highly recommend you get trip insurance in case of emergency.
“Kellie Day gave me inspiration and encouragement and I am forever grateful… Not to be too sentimental but your workshop was the first time I really felt like an artist and the potential to do good work. Your encouragement started me on my path and I will never forget your generosity and kindness. Thank you.”- Heather
