About this Event

Open Paint Hours – Creative Community Studio Time

Already taken a class with me and craving more time to paint? Open Paint Hours are designed just for you.

This relaxed, community-style studio session is for students who have completed at least one Mandala Minds class and feel comfortable with the basics of dot painting. Think of it as supported creative space — less instruction, more exploration.

Bring a project you’re already working on, start something new, or simply come to reconnect with your creative rhythm. I’ll be present to offer gentle guidance, answer questions, and provide supportive feedback if you’d like it. You’ll also have the encouragement and inspiration of painting alongside others in a calm, welcoming environment.

This is your time to slow down, experiment, refine your technique, and enjoy the process without pressure.


What to Expect:
  • Open studio time in a peaceful, supportive space
  • Light guidance and feedback from me as needed
  • Creative connection and community encouragement
  • Flexibility to work at your own pace

You’re welcome to:

  • Bring your own mandala project to continue
  • Purchase canvases, jars, or journals onsite
  • Explore new surfaces and ideas during your session

Open Paint is about practice, presence, and community — a place to return to yourself through creativity.

Extras: Feel free to bring a drink or snack to enjoy while you paint.
