Intuitive Painting with Cara Gregor

In intuitive painting, there are no rules, no agendas, and no checklists. Intuitive painting is a creative practice that encourages openness and acceptance in the flow of our unique creativity on canvas. Everyone will have a different painting each time they set out to listen and create.

Are you ready to tap into your own unique creative brilliance? In this warm and uplifting acrylic painting class, we’ll embark on a journey into the wonderful world of art—where the focus is not just on the finished piece, but on the joy and fulfillment found in the creative process itself. With paint, canvas, and some fun creative tools, we’ll explore the power of self-expression and the therapeutic nature of intuitive painting.

This class is your opportunity to play with acrylic paints, experiment with different tools, and even incorporate mixed media as your creativity takes shape. Under the caring guidance of instructor Cara Gregor, you’ll learn how to tap into your inner voice to create a piece of art that is entirely your own. The goal isn’t to paint something “perfect,” but to enjoy the process and build confidence in your artistic abilities within a nurturing and supportive space.

The best part—there are no rules! Your intuition will lead the way, supported by encouragement and compassion. Every brushstroke will be a reflection of your voice, your style, and your heart. Come ready to create, play, and leave with a one-of-a-kind piece that feels authentically you.
